Looks like something "well" maybe Clewell.

Can you look for a marriage for the father to a Millicent May and find out that way?

Death Reg;
June 1847
MELICENT May Nottingham 15 422

GRO has her as age 39 (birth c 1808)

Gosh Harriett wasnt Baptised until 28 Mar 1897
Birth Oct 1838
Parents Thomas/Millicent
Father a Bootmaker

Other Baptisms;
MARY CHARLSWORTH May 19 Sep 1828
HENRY 23 May 1830

So if my theory is correct Henry married Mary Charlesworth, she must of died and he remarried a Ann and named a Daug after his 1st Wife. (Unles she was Mary Ann Charlsworth)

All above on FreeREG

Trish :)

EDIT there is another Mary Charlsworth May Bapt 13 Sep 1812 to HENRY/ANN St Mary Nottingham
Henery MAY married Mary CHARLSWORTH 10 Jun 1806 same Church
(FreeREG)

These are likely Parents of Thomas May as there is this Bapt on Familysearch.Org
THOMAS May 28 November 1807 St. Mildred, Canterbury, Kent, England to HENRY/MARY
