Research Notes:
John Dyson would appear to have been married twice as his 1901 census shows Fanny Louisa Dyson (age 54, born Paddingnton, London)as his wife at that time..
John and his wife would appear to be in India in 1881 as they do not show up on the England 1881 census, although the daughter Mabel does show at a girls school in Hampstead, London.
ordered the following from GRO:
death should be sometime after xmas 1913 as we have a photo taken of him in Somerset at that time...
