Henry Colman, DD: Fellow 1694; died 1715.

Henry Colman was the son of Richard Colman of Brent Eleigh, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk (matriculated (at Queens'?) 1648).

Henry was born in London and schooled at Eton.  He started his student life at Queens' College, where he was admitted as a pensioner on 29th March 1688, but in July 1690 he migrated to Trinity, where he won a scholarship in 1691.

He graduated BA in 1691-2 and received a fellowhip in 1694, a year before receiving his MA.  He took his Bachelor of Divinity in 1705, and his doctorate in 1712.  He gave £50 towards the repair of the Chapel in 1707.

He was Rector of Harpley in Norfolk from 1706 to 1715, and Rector of Foulsham from 1713 until his death in October 1715.
