He married his cousin Jane Tower (1724–1761) in 1746; they had at least five children: Anne Proctor Bacon (1749–1813), Sir Thomas Beauchamp-Proctor, 2nd Bt.

Laeticia Johnson's sister and co-heiress Agneta married, also in 1762, Charles Yorke, then Attorney-General.

The by-election reputedly cost Beauchamp-Proctor ten thousand pounds and was marred by violence and riots.
