they had six sons and four daughters. Thomas Rogers (1761–1788). Samuel Rogers, third son, was left a stake in the family bank and an income of £5,000 per year by his father, who disapproved of Daniel's marriage. Samuel sold the family house on Newington Green in 1797. He passed control of the family bank in operational matters to his younger brother Henry in 1802. Henry Rogers (died 1833, unmarried). Martha (died 1835), eldest daughter, married in 1792 the banker John Towgood (1757–1837). Maria, married in 1795 Sutton Sharpe, the brewer, and was mother of the banker Samuel Sharpe, died in childbirth 1806. Sarah (died 1855, unmarried). A son Paul died an infant in 1768. Bank merger The Towgood family bank was merged into the Rogers bank in 1811. It went back to the bank Langston, Twogood & Amory, founded in 1777 by James Haughton Langston, a wine merchant and father of John Langston. John Towgood's father Matthew Towgood (1732–1791), son of Michaijah Towgood, was in early life a Presbyterian minister. He then moved to London where he was a banker, and a trustee of Hackney New College. His mother Mary Mills was sister of the banker John Mills (died 1759). Involved in a mortgage of a plantation on St Kitts, John Towgood received some compensation for enslaved people there. The banker Matthew Towgood (1761–1830) went into business with Bloxham & Fourdrinier and ended up owner of their paper mill at St Neots. D. C. Coleman has suggested the reason Towgood became a partner in Bloxham & Fourdrinier c.1808 may have been a loan extended by Langston, Towgood & Co.
