Best Answer

The Bible tells us nothing about the ancestry of Mary, although Christian tradition holds that her father and mother were called Joachim and Anne. The Church recognises that these traditions are apocryphal.

Others misread Luke's Gospel to say that Heli was Mary's father, in spite of Luke 3:23.

Neither view is supportable, and we do not really know who either parent of Mary was.
