Henry Roe (22 February 1829 3 August 1909) was a Church of England minister. He was also a professor and author. He was born in Henryville Lower Canada to a large family and his father, John Hill Roe, was a doctor.

Roe was a professor of divinity at Bishop's College and Second Master at Bishop's College School when It was an emerging institution.

It was not necessarily an intellectual approach but it became the norm for the Anglican Church in Quebec.

Apostolic succession is the method whereby the ministry of the Christian Church is considered by some Christian denominations to be derived from the apostles by a continuous succession, which has usually been associated with a claim that the succession is through a series of bishops. Those of the Anglican, Church of the East, Eastern Orthodox, Hussite, Moravian, Old Catholic, Oriental Orthodox, Catholic and Scandinavian Lutheran traditions maintain that "a bishop cannot have regular or valid orders unless he has been consecrated in this apostolic succession". These traditions do not always consider the episcopal consecrations of all of the other traditions as valid.
