Once again, the Anglo-Catholics are not “Traditionalists”. They only came about in the late 1800’s as a product of the Oxford movement and were and are a bunch of RC Wannabes.
The real “Traditionalists” are the Conservative “Evangelical” Anglicans, those who adhere to the Theology of the English Reformers such as Thomas Cranmer and the 39 Articles of Religion. The Founding Document of the Anglican Church which is totally Protestant in naure.

It depends on what position you are referring to. Certainly, the Anglo-Catholic movement is a product of a 19th century, but it was a movement of restoration (small “r”). The Calvinist Anglican “tradition” was, at its creation, a revolution, introducing concepts completely alien to British Christianity.
