“knowledge, have intercourse with a son that has debauched himself, and daughters that are prostitutes; and licence in lust shows them to be the men that have begotten them”
Augustine of Hippo, The Complete Early Church Fathers Collection: With linked footnotes
“AFTER the martyrdom of Paul and of Peter, Linus was the first to obtain the episcopate of the church at Rome."

The actual order of the first three so-called bishops of Rome is a greatly disputed matter. The oldest tradition is that given by St. Iranaeus, according to which the order was Linus, Anencletus, Clement ... It is at least certain that Rome at that early date had no monarchical bishop, and therefore the question as to the order of these first three bishops is not a question as to a fact.”
Eusebius, The Complete Early Church Fathers Collection: With linked footnotes
