In The History of Martha's Vineyard, Dukes County, Massachusetts (Edgarton, Massachusetts: Dukes County Historical Society; 1923), vol. 3, p. 282, Charles Edward Banks states that her father was Thomas Manchester (ca. 1726-10/13/1787) and her mother (based on family tradition but not established) was Eunice Norton.

It's not a primary source but maybe it's some help.
