His brother Friedrich Joseph Kilian Freiherr von Nordeck zur Rabenau (1793–1863), who was five years older than him, was a Hessian general and politician and member of the 1st and 2nd chambers of the state estates of the Grand Duchy of Hesse in Darmstadt.

Marriage and offspring

As a 40-year-old he married on May 20, 1838 in Ober-Mörlen the 13 years younger, 27-year-old Charlotte Freiin Wetzel called von Carben , (born October 14, 1811 in Ober-Mörlen; † November 21, 1888 in Dieburg), daughter of Johann Freiherr von Wetzel called von Carben auf Ober-Mörlen and Sophie Freiin von Syberg zu Sümmern.

Between 1870 and 1890 he also owned the two-storey, classicist house with a protruding hipped roof in Gießen, Frankfurter Strasse 52, which still exists today.
