What are the names of their children please?

There is this marriage - Samuel WRIGHT (of Shirland) and Ann ELSE (Ashover) 25 Nov 1799 at Ashover by banns

I realise Shirland is some way from Bamford and Hathersage.  :-\

I'm looking for the Maiden name of Nancy Wright 1785-1848 wife of Samuel Wright 1780-1851 of Bamford.
Which child of theirs are you descended from, what's the approx. DoB & where?

Knowing where the birth of the eldest child was, may lead to where the marriage took place.

It's worth knowing Nancy is a variant of Agnes & may also be Senga.

It's always an idea to give a bit of background info. where/if possible to help others help you.

Annie
South Uist, Inverness-shire, Scotland:- Bowie, Campbell, Cumming, Currie

Ireland:- Cullen, Flannigan (Derry), Donahoe/Donaghue (variants) (Cork), McCrate (Tipperary), Mellon, Tol(l)and (Donegal & Tyrone)

Newcastle-on-Tyne/Durham (Northumberland):- Harrison, Jude, Kemp, Lunn, Mellon, Robson, Stirling

Kettering, Northampton:- MacKinnon

Canada:- Callaghan, Cumming, MacPhee

Thank you everyone, I know the Wright family lived at Edale earlier and attended Castleton Church. The list I have of Sam and Nancy's   children are:- Samuel, Joseph, Sarah, George and Thomas. So far I haven't been able to verify this. Sarah is the only one I recognise.

Not close, but the only marriage to a Nancy that I can see… and marriage date is close to first known child with Nancy as named as a mother…. a long shot… but….
Samuel Wright married a Nancy Wright in 1814 Warrington Lancs?
