Biography
Theodorus van der Croon (1668-1739) served as the ninth Archbishop of Utrecht from 1734 to 1739.
Early Ministry & Association with the Chapter of Utrecht
Van der Croon was a parish priest in Gouda, Netherlands and was associated with the Chapter of Utrecht since the days of Archbishop Petrus Codde (1688-1710).
Archbishop of Utrecht
Following the death of Cornelius Johannes Barchman Wuytiers, Archbishop of Utrecht, on May 13, 1733, the Chapter of Utrecht convened on July 22, 1733 and unanimously elected van der Croon as bishop elect. On October 28, 1734, he was consecrated by Bishop Dominique Marie Varlet of the Diocese of Babylon. Church historian C.B. Moss described van der Croon as "a man of particularly gentle disposition."
Van der Croon published a considerable number of works in Dutch and Latin.
