Joseph Rothrock was the third of seven known children of Jonathan Rothtrock (1797-1871) and Susannah Derr Rothtrock (1802-1871). It is unsure of how many of Jonathan's children spelled the surname Rothtrock.

Joseph first married Mary (perhaps Stever, daughter of Samuel and Sallie Stever) (1825-1866) in c1852 in presumably Pennsylvania. Joseph and Mary were the parents of one known child, namely:

1. Edward/Edwin Henry Rothrock (1853-1911)

After Mary died, Joseph remarried to Rebecca (1832-1900) in c1868 in presumably Pennsylvania. Joseph and Rebecca were the parents of two children, the names of one whom is known, namely:

2. Laura C. Rothrock (1869-1869)
3. baby child Rothrock (???-???)

Links to Joseph's parents, both of his two known wives, all of his three known children and all of his six known siblings are included below.
