APOSTOLIC SUCCESSION
of
Most Reverend Andrew Berry
Archbishop-Primate
ANTONIO CARDINAL BARBERINI, was
consecrated by Bishops Scanarello, Bottini and Govotti in 1655. As Archbishop of Rheims, 1657, he
consecrated in the Church of the Sorbonne, Paris, the son of the Grand Chancellor of France,

as Archbishop of Rheims, November 12, 1668. He in turn, consecrated in the Church of the Cordeliers,

Meaux] as Bishop of Condom, September 21, 1670. He was transferred to the See of Meaux by Pope
Clement X, 1671. He in turn, consecrated in the Church of Chartreuse, Paris
JACQUES GOYDON DE MATIGNON, Bishop of
Condom, 1693, son of Count De Thoringy. He was doyen of Lisieux and Abbe Commendataire De St.

DOMINIQUE MARIE VARLET, as Bishop of
Ascalon in partibus, and coadjutor to the Bishop of Babylon, Persia, February 12, 1719. Retiring later to
Holland, he died twenty-three years after in the Cistern Abbey of Rhijnwick. In response to the appeal of
the Chapter of the Old Roman Catholic Church of Utrecht, he consecrated,
PETER JOHN MEINDAETS, as Archbishop of
Utrecht, October 17, 1739. He had been one of several priests ordained in Ireland by Luke Fagan, Bishop
of Meath [afterwards Archbishop of Dublin] with the view of sustaining the independence of the ancient
Church of the Netherlands, founded by St. Willibrord in the VII Century. By his consecration to the
Episcopate, the succession of the Old Roman Catholic Church in Holland has been perpetuated. [It is from
Archbishop Meindaets that all the later Old Roman Catholic bishops derive their succession, for the Bishop
of Babylon, after having consecrated four archbishops, died on May 14, 1742 at The Hague and it became
necessary to consecrate another bishop in order to provide for the succession]. Archbishop Meindaets
