==Personal life==
Belson was born in Ramsgate in Kent in 1874 to Berkley George A. Belson, a retired Royal Navy Commander originally from Woolwich and Sarah Belson from New South Wales, Australia. His family were originally from Portsmouth, but Belson moved to the South-West of England as a child, where he was educated at Clifton College. As an adult he entered the banking profession and worked for the National Provincial Bank. He followed a banking career for several years taking up positions around the Somerset and Wiltshire areas, and even took a post in Abergavenny in Wales in 1896; but by 1897 he was back in Somerset. In 1899, Belson was invited to join the British Isles rugby team on their tour of Australia, but was denied the six-month leave by his employers. He decided to take the opportunity regardless, and left for Australia in May that year, understanding his job was forfeit.〔 In September 1899, a month after the end of the rugby tour, the Bath Chronicle reported that Belson had taken an appointment in Sydney,〔 showing a commitment to stay in Australia.
In 1900, Belson joined the newly formed Imperial Yeomanry, and travelled to South Africa to serve the British Army in the Second Boer War. He joined Thorneycroft's Mounted Infantry, and reached the rank of Lieutenant. He left South Africa on 16 July 1902, leaving Cape Town on the SS Canada and returned to Britain a war invalid.〔(Anglo Boer War - Shipping records July 1902 ) angloboerwar.com〕 Between leaving Africa and the outbreak of the First World War, Belson moved to British Columbia in Canada, but returned to Britain to serve his country after the outbreak of war in 1914. He joined the Royal Army Service Corps, but did not appear to have seen active duty. During the War years Belson saw the birth of two sons, in 1916 and 1917. Between 1920 and 1924, he returned to British Columbia to continue his governmental duties.〔 He died in Southsea in 1952.
