AnswerWe do not know and can not know how old Mary was when she first conceived. Since it was common for girls to become married as soon as the reached puberty, it has always been assumed that she would have been no older than 14 years, but this is merely conjecture. The gospels tell us almost nothing about Mary, and much of what the gospel does tell us is contradictory, but this is all we do know,

Matthew traces Jesus' genealogy through his foster father, Joseph, back to Abraham. Luke on the other hand, is believed to have traced Jesus lineage through Mary, his mother, back to Adam.
