Paul was unmarried (and so was Jesus, obviously). Barnabas was unmarried. Scripture is silent on the married status of any of the rest - excepting Peter. The Church from the beginning believed in continency of its clergy and over the centuries, strengthened that belief.
Yup, we had married Popes. The proscription against married upper clergy took centuries to be established.
We also had some Popes that made Judas Iscariot look downright Christian...

(I would not believe in the Gospel if the authority of the Catholic Church did not move me to do so..)
