Ackroyd met Mabel Robina Smythe (1877–1947) matron of Strangeways Hospital while at Cambridge.
They were married on 1 August 1908 and lived in Great Shelford, Cambridgeshire where their children Ursula (1909–1993) and Stephen (1912–1963) were born.
They then moved to Brooklands, 46 Kneesworth Street, Royston, Hertfordshire, where Anthony (1914–1988) was born.
The house is presently owned by an investment company where there is a memorial to Ackroyd on the street-facing wall and inside the house.
Another road in the town has been named after him.
