We just bought a house with a salt water pool and they don’t have the valves by the pool pump labeled I’m trying to see if anyone can help?

Welcome to TFP! 
Those valves are all on the suction side of the pump, so they are pulling water. I suspect you have something like:
- One poolside skimmer; maybe two plumbed separately?
- Main drain
- Spa
- Dedicated port in the wall for a suction cleaner?
It would help if you updated your signature with all of your pool and equipment info. Maybe also post a pic of your pool itself. That should help.

So the first valve I have no idea?
Second valve I think may be the end drains, there’s 2
3rd valve is the pool vacuum
4th valve is the skimmer. M

Oooooohhhhh. Very nice. 
For the first (mystery) valve, you may have to just slowly open it and see what changes with water suction. Maybe each drain is plumbed separately?
