William married Elizabeth Harriot, née Cuthbert (d. 1874), in 1834 and they had three sons, including the art collector and politician Sir William Cuthbert Quilter and the art critic Harry Quilter, and two daughters. His notable collection of watercolours fetched £58,000 at Christies in 1875; and the value of the remaining pictures at the time of his death was £31,486. Quilter died on 12 November 1888 at his home, 28 Norfolk Street, Park Lane, London, leaving well over half a million pounds, one of the largest known estates of any Victorian accountant.

He spent vast sums of money on the estate, which totalled 9000 acres, in the form of sea defences, a manor house, and an alpine garden. Quilter shared his father's interest in art collecting, although he cultivated his own unique, albeit catholic, taste. His collection included works by modern English artists, such as the Pre-Raphaelite painters D. G. Rossetti, Millais, and Holman Hunt; Royal Academicians including Sir Frederic Leighton, Sir Edwin Landseer, and Sir Hubert von Herkomer; nineteenth-century French masters, for example Corot, Daubigny, and Millet; and old masters such as Frans Hals and Velázquez. His collection was well respected. The art critic F. G. Stephens praised Quilter's collection in a series of articles written for Cassell's Magazine of Art in 1896-7. Quilter's assemblage of paintings at his London house, 28 South Street, Park Lane, was sold at Christies on 9 July 1909, realizing £87,780. (1)
