From a theological perspective, the Catholic Church, and by extension the Protestant denominations that believe in apostolic succession, trace the lineage back to St. Peter and Jesus himself.

Is there documentation of apostolic succession that can trace modern bishops and priests to the earliest of the church fathers? Or is there a point between present day and the early 1st century CE in which historians can no longer definitively trace the lineage of apostolic succession? Is there a bishop that we can trace present day back to, however, we are unaware of who laid hands on him?

EDIT: I did more research on my own. 95% of Catholic priests trace their Apostolic Succession (or Episcopal Lineage) back to 1541 and Cardinal Scipione Rebiba. There is no historical documentation to show who laid hands on him, although it is believed to be the future Pope Paul IV that consecrated him. So there it is, it is traced back to just under 500 years ago, historically.
