Shadrack Rozar was born between 1805 and 1807, in Jefferson County, Georgia, the son of John and Mariann Rozar. Shadrack's parents moved to Burke County, Georgia in 1793, settling in the portion that became Jefferson County in 1796. As an infant, Shadrack moved in late 1808 or early 1809 with his parents to Pulaski County, Georgia, settling in the portion that later became Dodge and Bleckley Counties.
Shadrack Rozar married about 1828 or early 1829 to Elizabeth Ann Regan (c1814-Sept 1854), the daughter of Daniel and Mary Regan and youngest sister of his two brothers-in-law, Joseph and Elias Daniel Regan, husbands of Shadrack's sisters Olive and Elizabeth, respectively. Between 1830 and the 1850s, Shadrack lived in Pulaski County near his older brothers, Seaborn and John, on their father's old plantation. In 1850 his farm was valued at $400, but he owned no slaves. In 1856, Shadrack's brother, John Rozar, Jr. had remarried to Mary Evans Regan (c1823–after 1880), the daughter of Robert A. Regan (11 June 1800–15 June 1853) and Mary Evans. Robert was the nephew of Daniel Regan, making him the first cousin to Shadrack's wife, Elizabeth. In 1859, Shadrack married the widowed Mary Evans Regan, the mother of his brother's wife and also the widow of his second wife's first cousin.
After Shadrack's marriage to Mary Evans Regan, it appears that he sold his farm near his brothers and moved onto the Regan farm. In 1860, Shadrack and Mary farmed with in Pulaski County, living with her son and daughter, James R. and Nancy Regan, and Shadrack's youngest daughter Cherry Rozar. In 1870, Shadrack lived with Mary and Cherry, and he still farmed. Shadrack's obituary was published in the Dodge County newspaper "Eastman Times" issue dated Thursday, 15 January 1880, and it places his death on January 8th:
"Mr. Shaderick Rozar, an aged and good citizen of this county, died at the home of his brother, Charles Rozar, on Thursday night last, after a long and lingering illness."
