Following suffolk*sue's suggestion above, I looked at the Saxtead parish register.

Louisa d/o John James and Mary his wife late Hannant privately baptised 12th April 1803 aged 4 months.

John James of this parish bachelor
Mary Pemberton of the same parish widow
Married in this church by licence
13th November 1795
He marked X, she signed her name
In presence of Samuel Hannant (X) and John Keeble

As the witness's name is Hannant, this could possibly link with Mary's m/name being Hannant in the baptism register.  Pemberton might be her earlier married name?

Thank you all, this is amazing. I'm sorry for the delay but I've been out of family research for a couple of months.

I WONDER WHO THE FATHER WAS!!! Excruciating!
