From this point onwards no further institutions to the Rectory of Adbolton are to be found. On 22 June 1722, the Rev Samuel Greatorex, was instituted to the rectory of Holme Pierrepont with Adbolton annexed, on the presentation of Evelyn, Duke of Kingston-on-Hull. All subsequent institutions were made in like form.

The George Coats of 1622, appears to be identical with George Cotes or Coates, M.A., who was instituted Rector of St Peter's, Nottingham, 9 July 1617, and died 29 November 1640, aged 53; he was buried in St Peter's Church.
