Hi MPG,
sorry this is a bit late, but I just found this enquiry was covered on a prior thread. I'm ashamed to admit I only found it while doing a general internet search of "Nathaniel Weaver 1884" ...

Btw the Death Record you found on the Ancestry trees slightly disagrees with that on FreeBMD;

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Deaths Mar 1884 (>99%)
Weaver Nathaniel 58 Malling 2a 364

For the benefit of other Forum Members - the dates given should be in the 19th century - not 20th century

as it lists him aged 29, on the 1851 census, Elmstone, Hardwick
aged 39 - 1861 again Elmstone, Hardwick
aged 49 - 1871 again Elmstone, Hardwick

I have found on ancestry 3 marriage banns 31 Oct 1841, 7 Nov 1841 and 14 Nov 1841 for Mary Ann Freeman and Nathaniel Weaver at Gloucester St John the Baptist.
However there was never a marriage. On 16 April 1842 Mary Ann Freeman gave birth to a son Nathaniel Weaver Freeman. But his birth and baptism records state Mary was a single mother. What happened to Nathaniel Weaver the father - I cannot find a death for him around 1841/1842
