St. James the Younger
Answer 2.
St James son of Zebedee.
Zebedee is transliterated into Theuda, the Greek for Zebedee. Zebedee and Theuda both mean gift of God. The Bishop of Jerusalem is recorded as the son of Theuda and Mary, in the Apocalypse of James.
It is non-compliant with Holy Scripture to designate James the Less as Bishop of Jerusalem. The New Testament records that the three most saintly of the Twelve Disciples were Peter, James and John, John and James being the sons of Zebedee.
Peter was sent to found the Church in Rome, John to found the Church in Ephesus, and James son of Zebedee remained in Jerusalem to administer the Church and vicinity there.
In his capacity of being alike in character and appearance to Jesus Christ, he was known as James the Just and the Lord's Brother, and also the Bulwark - ref. The Second Epistle of Ignatius to John.
The evidence is incontrovertible when the accounts as written, are acknowledged as being in concordance with Holy Scripture.
To discount these following records you will be non-compliant with Holy Scripture.
References:
1. Jesus Christ selects Peter, James and John as his inner circle of three, who being strongest of the Twelve, are taught the deeper meaning of his teachings, necessary for his leaders in the founding of Christianity. - New Testament.
2.James son of Zebedee is the most saintly of the two named James of the Twelve, and therefore James written without an appellation refers to him, giving continuity throughout the New Testament and Holy Scripture.
3.James son of Zebedee (Theuda), is accounted as James the Just, the Bulwark, and one of the Twelve Disciples, and is designated as a spiritual brother (the Lord's Brother) and not a brother by kin, - as per Jesus Christ, Apocalypse and Apocryphon of James.
4.James, the Bishop of Jerusalem, with the surname of the Lord's brother, is designated as James son of Zebedee, one of the sons of thunder, - as per the Virgin Mary and accounts contained within her Assumption Gospels such as The History of the Blessed Virgin Mary, E. A. Wallis Budge.
5.James brother of John is accounted as having been already dead at her Assumption, and so in accordance with Acts 12:2. James the Less is placed as a brother by mother to John, - John 19:27, Mark 6:3; History of the Virgin Mary, W. Wright.

Who was the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church?
Christian tradition holds that Peter was the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church. However, there is no evidence that Peter ever even visited Rome. Paul writes of meeting Peter in Jerusalem, presumably in the 50s of the first century, when Peter was still one of the pillars of the Jerusalem church. When Paul wrote of Peter, he would already have been rather old and unlikely to begin overseeing the Roman community. Moreover, scholars say that the role of 'bishop' was only instituted in the second century, by which time Peter would have been long dead. Apart from the tradition about Peter, we do not know who the first Roman bishop of the Christian Church was.
