Dickson married to Frances Emmeline Parkes, young daughter of Sir Harry Smith Parkes, British minister at Tokyo and Peking. They had two daughters, Dorothy Parkes Dickson born in 1895 and Mabel Dickson born in 1900. In 1908 he chose to come overland across America. On arrival he purchased Friars Carse in Dumfrieshire which remained the family home until Fanny sold it to the Post Office (presumably as a retirement home) and moved to the Station Hotel where she lived for the rest of her life.
