Elizabeth (was called Eliza or Nancy) Rebecca Fry (though Moravian Records show middle name of "Rosena") was one of three known daughters of Jacob Frey (1796-1847) and Anna (went by Nancy) Cook (1805-1842), who married 22 Jul 1830 at Davidson County, North Carolina. Jacob had previously been married, with known children.

Eliza was orphaned at an early age and it not sure who raised her.
Her two elder sisters were raised at the Moravian Sisters House in Salem, Forsyth County, North Carolina. The mother Nancy Cook Frey is buried at Hope Moravian Church Cemetery in Forsyth County, North Carolina (as are Jacobs' two previous wives) and it is assumed that Jacob is also buried there, but he is not listed on the cemetery transcription.

County records show that Eliza married Rev. John Madison Rothrock (1841-1929) on 28 May 1861 at Forsyth County, North Carolina.
Other records show they married on 20 May 1865. Did they register to marry in 1861, but put it off because John served for the Confederacy in the Civil War?

Eliza and John were the parents of ten known children, six boys and four girls. Seven of the ten children lived to maturity. The children were, namely:

1. John Franklyn Rothrock (1866-1939)
2. Mary Alice Rothrock Alcorn (1869-1958)
3. Ellen R. Rothrock Tuttle (1871-1952)
4. Elizabeth P. Rothrock Tuttle (1872-1948)
5. Emory Augustus Rothrock (1874-1972)
6. Brotus Rothrock (1876-1876)
7. Francis D. Rothrock (1877-1877)
8. Carrie Lee Rothrock James (1878-1964)
9. Andrew Thomas Rothrock (1880-1959)
10. Willis F. Rothrock (1881-1881)

In 1870 the family was living at Salem Chapel Township, Forsyth County, North Carolina. In 1900 Rev. John (listed as a farmer), Eliza (mother of ten, seven living which agrees with the above listing) and children Ellen, Emory, Carrie and Andrew were living at Sauratown Township, Stokes County, North Carolina.
