The 1862 Coleraine by-election of 31 January 1862 was called on the death of the previous Conservative M.P. John Boyd in January 1862.[1] The only candidate was Conservative Sir Henry Hervey Bruce, 3rd Baronet.[2] He retained the seat until the 1874 United Kingdom general election when he was defeated by the Liberal Daniel Taylor.[3]
