Possibly George Colman the younger DNB 1762-1836. A full text search of the DNB for Coleman shows a number of instances of George Colman's name (senior or junior) being spelt Coleman. The "incog" may be connected with Holcroft's belief that his name and Godwin's were bad publicity for plays they had written. George Colman the younger married Catherine Morris at Gretna Green 3.10.1784 and again at St Luke's Chelsea 10.11.1788 (she died about 1820 so could have been the mrs Colman of 1811). Her brother David Edward Morris (will PCC 1842) was a witness at their second wedding and became a major shareholder in Colman's theatre. If he was the Morris that Godwin met on 27.10.1799 and thereafter usually in theatrical company, he was in Godwin's 1796 list as Morris (secret). In Highfill, Burnim & Langhans there is an entry for "Morris, Willoughby Lacy: see Lacy, Willoughby" but there is no reference to Morris in their article on Lacy (qv). If the 1800 incog call was on George Colman that makes it perhaps more likely that the earlier Coleman was someone else, if incog meant Godwin intended not to be recognised. The Colman in Ireland was presumably a different person, see work notes below
