Maddys52  1841 Census is the family. I think he name Barber has appeared somewhere before.

Hannah Dain possibly changed her name to Nancy. In the Edale records there is a Samuel Barber Dain, bapt.10/7/1779. Maybe a family connection with the name Barber as shown in the 1841 Census.

Ann, Hannah, Nancy are all variations of the same name.  :)

There is a Samuel Barber DAIN baptised at Edale 29 May 1768, son of John and Sarah DAIN, and buried 4 Jun 1771.

There is also a Samuel Barber DAIN baptised at Edale on 10 Jul 1799 at Edale, son of Ralph and Ellen.

(On FreeReg)

Modified to add:
Ralph DAIN (weaver, bachelor of Edale) married Ellen YATES (spinster of Chapel en le Frith) on 29 May 1796 at Chapel en le Frith by license.

A couple of possibilities for John and Sarah, most likely John DAIN (skinner, bachelor of Chapel en le Frith) married Sarah LOMAS (spinster of Hope), on 06 Dec 1762 at Chapel en le Frith.

There is a marriage between a Phillip BARBER (husbandman) and Mary DAIN both otp on 7 Apr 1777 at Chapel en le Frith.

In the 1841 census mentioned above the Samuel WRIGHT is a farmer and the next property on the census has James BARBER, farmer, and his family. Whilst the families may be related through marriage, it may well be a few generations earlier.

Thank you Maddys52 for your reply, a few more gaps filled in. I also had noticed the two Samuel Barber Dain names!

A relative of mine thought the Mariage of Samuel and Nancy was in 1802 at Castleton, could anyone check this please?

As manukarik said in reply #5, there is a marriage of a Samuel WRIGHT and Hannah DAIN at Castleton on 3 October 1808, by banns.  They both signed and witnesses were Mary DAIN and John PROCTOR.


Can't see a marriage of  a Samuel WRIGHT at Castleton in 1802. There is  a John WRIGHT married Hannah MARSHALL on 16 Dec 1802. Witness was Thomas BANDBURY.

Thank you maddys52 for your reply. I think my relative has seen John Wright mentioned in 1802 marriage. Thank you to everyone else who posted replies.
