After being re-elected for Dorset to the Long Parliament later in the year, on 12 September 1642 he was disabled from sitting for sending forces into Sherborne Castle. Rogers married Anne Cheek, a daughter of Sir Thomas Cheek of Pirgo, and they had two daughters, Elizabeth and Rogersa. After the death of Rogers in 1643, aged 32, his widow married Robert Rich, 3rd Earl of Warwick. His daughters and co-heiresses were left in the guardianship of his mother and of Sir Lancelot Lake, the husband of Anne's sister Frances.
