Apostolic Succession.
The unbroken link of the 'laying on of hands' for the Ordering of Bishops, Priests and Deacons.

The Apostolic Succession of the Anglican Church was through the Roman Church from the arrival of St. Augustine in A.D. 597 until the Act of Supremacy A.D.1534 when King Henry VIII asserted control over the English Church. Thomas Cranmer was at that time Archbishop of Canterbury and Primate of all England.
