Rahab was a prostitute who hid the spies sent by Israel to spy out Jericho so that they would not be killed. She hid them during a search made of her house and then let them down out her window outside the city wall so they could escape. She and her family were granted immunity when it came to Israel destroying the city of Jericho. She was remembered throughout history as having been a friend to Israel. She was also David's great-great grandmother.

Yes, in fact Rahab did have a child. Her child was Boaz, who eventually married Ruth. Rahab married an Israelite soldier named Salmon. Rahab was in fact rewarded for her faith by being added into the family tree of Christ, as were Ruth and Boaz because their son was named Obed who was the father of Jesse who was in turn the father of David. He was the kid with the sling who killed the giant Goliath.

No, Joshua did not marry Rahab. We are told in Matthew 1:5 that Rahab married Salmon (Not Solomon).
