Rachel's first husband, John Cromwell, died in 1835. There were at least two children by this marriage, an unknown daughter and Jackson Cromwell.
Rachel was later remarried to Solomon Harness. From this marriage, at least five children were born-- Harriet, Joshua, John, George W, and Letitia.
It's possible two children did not survive infancy, as Rachel reported she was the mother of nine children on her 1900 census.

Jackson Cromwell's death certificate claimed that his mother's maiden name was Hawkse. While her parents are currently otherwise unknown, her census records show that her father was born in Maryland, and her mother was born in either Ohio or Pennsylvania. Rachel maintained that her own birthplace was Indiana.
