Origins
Dickson or, as is common in England, "Dixon," is a patronymic surname, traditionally Scottish and thought to have originated upon the birth of the son of Richard Keith, son of Hervey de Keith, Earl Marischal of Scotland, and Margaret, daughter of the 3rd Lord of Douglas. "Nisbet in his Heraldry (Edinburgh 1722) says 'The Dicksons are descendants from Richard Keith, said to be a son of the family of Keith, Earls Marischals of Scotland' and in proof thereof carry the chief of Keith Marischal. This Richard was commonly called Dick and the 'son' was styled after him. The affix of son in the Lowlands answering the prefix Mac in the Highlands." As a result, Clan Dickson is considered a sept of Clan Keith. Richard Keith's son, Thomas, took the surname "Dickson," meaning "Dick's son" or "Richard's son." Thomas Dickson (1247–1307) himself has quite a history. He was associated in some way with William Wallace, and was killed by the English in 1307 in battle. Tradition states he was slashed across the abdomen but continued fight holding the abdominal wound closed with one hand until he finally dropped dead. He is buried in the churchyard of St Brides, Douglas, and his marker shows him with a sword in one hand holding his belly with the other. Robert the Bruce made him Castellan of Castle Douglas the year before he was killed.

The Dicksons/Dixons (and 30 other derivates) family name was first found in Scotland whilst the Dixons in England who are of Scottish descent from Thomas Dickson living in 1268 are of the same origin as the Scottish Dicksons. Early records show Thomas Dicson, a follower of the Douglas clan, at the capture of Castle Douglas in 1307.

The Dickson's coat of arms show the Keith "pallets gules" and the Douglas "mullets argent", this is to show their descent from these two ancient Scottish noble families. The family mottoes include "Fortes fortuna juvat", "Coelum versus", for Dickson: translated as "Fortune favours the brave", Heavenward"; whilst "Quod dixi dixi" Dixon, is translated as "What I have said I have said"

Mr. Dickson had been in his usual state of health during the day and made no complaint when he retired to rest shortly after nine o'clock. He had reached the age of eighty-three years, was a Newtownards man, and early developed his horticultural horticultural business by his practical knowledge, his keen foresight, and abundant energy. The fame and reputation of the firm's roses became such that it has been remarked if the average schoolboy were asked for what was Newtownards noted the reply would probably be, "Dickson's roses." The qualities and excellence of the roses raised in Newtownards soon brought the firm to the forefront among rosarians, and the main credit of this is due to the deceased. Full of energy, he found time also to devote some of his abilities to the benefit of the local community, and he was chairman of the Newtownards Board of Guardians from the passing of the Local Government Act until 1906. The services which he had given to the rosarian world were recognised by the Royal Horticultural Society, who paid him the highest honour in their power by conferring upon him the decoration of M.V.H. Genial and kindly in his disposition, the late Mr. Dickson made hosts of friends, who sincerely regret his demise and extend their heartfelt sympathy to his sorrowing family. The funeral will be strictly private.
