Davis George Croghan, D.D. The first Archdeacon of Bloemfontein,[1] and Provost of the Cathedral.[2] Born 10 July 1832 in Ireland, died 21 November 1890 in South Africa.

Dr. Croghan was a graduate of Trinity College, Dublin. He arrived in Bloemfontein on 28 February 1867, but left on 6 March 1887, in part because of the relatively harsh winters in the Orange Free State, and became Dean of Grahamstown.[3]
