The Smalley marriages are online, but there's no sign of Samuel and Mary's marriage (pity, because it's one of those registers where the vicar's added a lot of interesting comments):

The IGI has the following submitted record:

SAMUEL RODGER
Male

Marriages:
Spouse: MARY CLARK
Marriage: 13 AUG 1781 Staveley, Derby, England

There's a transcription of the Staveley marriages online, but the groom's surname is shown as Redgate:

and FamilySearch Record Search also has it as Redgate:

You'd need to see the actual registers to check what the surname actually looks like.
Staveley isn't all that close to Smalley (about 25 miles away), so it may not be the right marriage.
