all records for Sudbury are kept at Bury St Edmunds record office. The records you require should be there. It's a pity it wasn't a few weeks ago as OH and I spent three days there looking up his relatives and I would have looked up things for you

I believe the records office is in Ipswich,
Suffolk Records Office
Gatacre Road, Ipswich
Tel No: 01473 584541

Have you considered contacting the local churches in Hadleigh? If the child was buried there then the church may very well still have a record, in turn this should name the parents. I found my great grandfathers burial by contacting what would have been his local church, he died in 1895 and they still had the original record.
Good luck, i hope you find what you are looking for.
