Revd. Joseph Coltman (born 1775), a Beverley clergyman, died 19th June. His property passed to his brother Sir Thomas Coltman , who named it 'in compliment to his father'. The Coltmans were a wealthy landowning 19th century family. "The family owned land which was ripe for development at a time when the town was experiencing a massive increase in population and decided that it would be more profitable to turn fields into streeets. Coltman street had the finest residences and proudly bore the family name. Bacheler Street honours a family into which the Coltmans married , and King's Bench Street and Queensgate Street were named after Coltman addresses in London".
