Answer. Yes-We have the writings of early Church Fathers

      mmm ... No.  Shocking as it may be, the writings of the "early Church Fathers" are not authoritative for any but the Roman and Orthodox churches. 

      Incidentally, the earliest of your quotes which actually puts Peter in Rome is dated 178 AD.
