Hi Mattygirl

Found the following on Familysearch.org

Richard Bridge marr Grace Entwistle 24/1/1785 Bury, Lancs.

A further search showed that they had two children i.e Alice Bridge b/bapt 19/10/1785
Grace Bridge b/bapt 24/8/1791

Both born Hawkshaw Lane, Holcombe, Lancs

Grace Bridge above is the only one born around the period you mentioned, although it is somewhat later than the date you gave.

Having checked Old Maps,Holcombe/Little Holcombe is in
the Tottington Lower End area of Burnley.
