Commercially the South American trade continued to be the main focus of G.F.Dickson's acitivities. Now the firm was called "G.F.Dickson & Co." only, the name of his partner Montgomery did not appear any more. The representation in Buenos Aires and in Montevideo was done by agents, the longest serving of them was Frederick Hughes.

It was in London where G.F.Dickson spent the last two decades of his life, from about 1835 to his death in 1859. Here his life and work reached some new heights, especially when he served as a

for the River Plate or Argentina, and, for a short time, even as an Argentinian minister (1853).

In London, the family at first lived at Clarence Terrace, Regent's Park, before they moved to 20, Hanover Terrace, Regent's Park (see pictures).
