On 9 May 1698, he married Mary Henley, daughter of Sir Robert Henley at St Giles in the Fields in London.[2] They had five sons and five daughters.[4] Rogers died, aged 67 and was buried in Cornwood in Devon a week later.[2] He was succeeded in the baronetcy successively by his sons Sir John Rogers, 3rd Baronet and Frederick.[5]
