Allison was born in Greenock, Scotland and, while still young, migrated to Canada with his family. They lived across from Walkerville Collegiate Institute, the school he attended for high school. He then attended Assumption College and finally University of Toronto. After graduation, he went back to Walkerville to work as a teacher. A year later he married one of the secretaries of the school - Jean Alberta Reid, and eventually the couple had two daughters - Heather and Janey. Allison retired from teaching in 1973. He is an inductee into the Windsor Essex Sports Hall of Fame.
