Rachel was a daughter of Frederick Vollrath. She married Gustav Koch in Germany, and they had nine children: Lena, Johanna, Frank, Charles Gustav, Mary Mame, William, Fredman, Sophia, and another child who died as an infant.
Because she was pregnant with their first child, she did not emigrate at the same time as her husband. She came to the U.S. later with her infant daughter Lena. Her other eight children were born in Pennsylvania.
