Nerissa Dagmar James was born September 25, 1898 in Brooklyn, New York to Charles Francis James and Nerissa Dorothy Simpson. Her father died in 1903 when she was just 4 years old. Her mother apparently died shortly thereafter, and Dagmar is shown living with her brother and her grandmother, Martha Jane Simpson, in the 1910 US Census.

Dagmar was first married to Fred Harlowe McFarlane on September 19, 1923 in Los Angeles. The wedding announcement describes her as "prominent in Pacific Coast society," although the record is not clear regarding when she moved from New York to Los Angeles. She and Fred would have two children: Barbara, born in 1924, and Peter, born in 1927. Fred would die in 1948.

She married her second husband, William Innes Wilson, on August 1, 1970 when she was 70 years old and he was 77. Her husband died in 1979 at the age of 86.

Dagmar died August 22, 1986 in Santa Cruz, California, at the age of 87.
