Born in Ellicott Mills, Anne Arundel County, Maryland, Dorsey attended Harvard Law School through his Junior year, but left before graduating.

Reports of his death state that Dorsey died suddenly, and unexpectedly, on March 29, 1885, at his home in Sonora due to a "spasmodic affection of the throat". He left behind his wife, Esther Maria McNabb-Dorsey, three daughters and a son. At the time of his death, he was serving as a Regent for the California State University, and as a director of the Stockton Insane Asylum, having been recently appointed to both posts by Governor George Stoneman. The Tuolumne Bar Association honored Dorsey on April 1, 1885, by submitting an official resolution to the court recognizing Dorsey's longtime contributions to the County and State. (en)
