I am not happy with Hannah's parents as listed here.
Her baptism record for St Andrews Church, Steeple Giddings states:

1792
Aug 26 ATKINS Hannah d of Edward & Jane

There is a similar registration for another child of Edward & Jane in 1797
1797
Jan 8 ATKINS Mary d of Edward & Jane

There is also an Edward in 1799

===
The above mentioned Edward and Jane married in 1790 (same parish)

1790
Oct 12 ATKINS [signs ATTKINS] Edward
SAVAGE Jane (X) botp by Banns
Wit: John PACK (X), Elizabeth WATERS (X)

Hannah's own marriage is registered at the same church
1815
Nov 8 VENTERS William (X) of Elton
ATKINS Hannah (X) otp by Banns with consent of parents
Wit: Wm DUNKLEY (X), Richd GILBY

Asides:

Her mother's maiden name of Savage potentially matches her as a witness to a wedding in 1810, when Hannah would have been 18.
Jul 16 SAVAGE John (X)
WITNEY Elizabeth (X) botp by Banns
Wit: Robert STANYION (X), Hannah ATKINS (X)

Richard Gilby, one of the witnesses at Hannah's wedding (above) a few years later, was also married to an Atkins/Attkins.
Oct 13 GILBY Richard bac
ATKINS [signs ATTKINS] Frances spin botp
Wit: John PACK (X), M ATTKINS
The witness is unlikely to be Hannah's sister, as Mary would only be about 8 in 1805.

The gap between Hannah and Mary can be explained by a burial on 19 March 1794 of a daughter to Edward and Jane, named Frances. No baptism record obvious

Hannah's brother Edward also died young and was buried in Steeple Gidding
1799
Aug 23 ATKINS Edward s of Edward & Jane
