1 Samual 1-2

Peninnah and Hannah were both married to Elkanah.  Peninnah had children, Hannah had none.  Hannah prayed to the Lord and pledged her child to him if he granted her one.  After Samual was born, she kept her word, and placed him on the alter steps.  He grew to be a great prophet.
 

Merab was King Saul's daugher, almost married to David.
King David had 8 wives - Michal, the second daughter of King Saul; Ahinoam of Jezreel; Abigail, previously wife of Nabal; Maachah; Haggith; Avital; Eglah; and Bathsheba, previously the wife of Uriah the Hittite
The woman of Endor was a seer, who showed Samual to King Saul, even though it had been forbidden.
