Peter I had to trace back through your earlier messages but here is what you are looking for.

Name: Nancy BLACKINTON [I did not know her birthdate]
Sex: F
Birth: in Thomaston, ME

Father: John BLACKINTON b: 1727 in Attleboro, MA d:1770
Mother: Chloe WOOD b: 1730 in prob. Attleboro, MA

Marriage 1 Marlboro PACKARD b: 1763 in Bridgewater, MA
Married: 1788 in Thomaston, ME
Children
Rebecca PACKARD b: ABT 1792 in Thomaston, ME
Nancy Ann PACKARD b: 1794

Chloe (Wood) Blackinton remarried to Oliver Robbins abt 1775 in Attleboro, MA. Oliver was born 1751 in Thomaston, ME (son of Oliver and Elioni (Shepard))

This family is very confusing but I think that I have it right. Nancy also had a brother James b. 1766 who married Betsey Watson that lived in Thomaston, ME and a sister Barbara birth date unknown that died in 1822. She was married to Nathaniel Copeland and lived in Warren, ME.

The John Blackinton / Chloe Wood line has always been a very difficult one for me to research. Here are a few sources you might take a look at.
