He gained an MA at Trinity College, Cambridge and later studied theology at Ripon College Cuddesdon. Shortly after ordination, he became Vicar of Hilperthorne, York, 1881-91 and the Rector of All Saints Church, Roos, Yorkshire from 1891-1921. The interior of the church was reordered by the renowned architect, Temple Moore in the early 20th century.

He is believed to have resided at Roos and there in the early summer of 1917 his newly-pregnant wife Edith danced and sang in a "hemlock" glade on the edge of the village. After the Revd. Milson's death at Rusthall, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, a memorial window was put in the Baptistery at Roos Church in commemoration of him.Major Cecil Francis Milsom DSO (1881-1963), of The Warren, Northam, North Devon was educated at Bath College and Trinity College, Cambridge.
