Wife of Rev. Peter Parker (1801-1877). Contemporary charts and sources cite her family to number 12 children by her Parker husband. In memory of her great grandchildren who lived with her in her last days, the children numbered to sixteen. "Grandma" Nancy has a really remarkable genealogy, dating back to the late Middle Ages in several countries, far too extensive to recapture in this brief memorial.

Nancy was the daughter of Abraham Blackshear II (1772-1842) and Mildred Malinda Lord Blackshear (1775-1850).
Her grandparents were Abraham Blackshear I(1742-1810) and
Agnes Blackshear (1742 - ).

A study of her extensive lineage, reveals an interesting outline of the course of history of the number of counties in whiich her ancestors lived. Her families reflect the ancestry of ancient peoples' in Europe, as they moved around the continent and abroad, striving for a more comfortable and freer environment in which to live and to worship as they felt to be right and proper.

Perhaps it may be seen as a major success in the life of Nancy Blackshear Parker, that after almost three centuries of family's moving around the world, seeking religious comfort, that her husband founded and pastored their own church, in their own village, which he is said to have started. it could be seen, that four centuries of striving, arrived at perhaps the truest example of religious freedom, sought by the many generations before her.

Her known children are listed under her husband Peter Parker's memorial.
