He was the son and heir of Sir Lucas Dillon, Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer, and Jane Bathe, daughter of James Bathe.〔''Cracroft's Peerage: The Complete Guide to the British Peerage & Baronetage'' - 'Roscommon, Earl of (I, 1622 - 1850)' http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/roscommon1622.htm〕

On 24 January 1619 he was raised to the peerage with the title of Baron Dillon of Kilkenny-West, in the Peerage of Ireland.〔John Debrett, ''The Peerage of the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Ireland'', Volume 2 (1809), 675.〕 He was furthered honoured when he was made Earl of Roscommon on 5 August 1622.〔''Cracroft's Peerage: The Complete Guide to the British Peerage & Baronetage'' - 'Roscommon, Earl of (I, 1622 - 1850)' http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/roscommon1622.htm〕 Roscommon was a signatory of the response to Charles I from the Lords of the Pale in 1625, which established a force of soldiers to protect The Crown's interests in Ireland.〔Aidan Clarke, 'The Army and Politics in Ireland 1625-30', ''Studia Hibernica'' (No. 4, 1964), 34.〕 In 1627, he was a Commissioner for raising money for the King's Army in Meath, Westmeath and Longford.
