I was wondering if there is a way to find a list of early Apostolic succession up to the Modern day for the Eastern Catholic Churches ie for the Maronites, also the St Thomas Christians, the Byzantine catholics, etc. Also if there is a way to find their writings. The writings of the Latin Fathers are easier to find.

For the St.Thomas Christians, are you interested in Syrian Catholic Succession or Syrian Orthodox Succession? Most of the Syriac writings of the St.Thomas Christians were burned by the Portuguese.
 
The writings of Pre-Schism Eastern fathers are generally pretty easy to find, as English Protestants have been translating them for centuries. Just look up the names and you should easily find what we have (I recommend looking on ccel.org). Post schism Eastern Fathers, no matter who they were in communion with, tend to be harder since Protestants didn’t care about them.

I know that over the past several decades the translation of the works of those later fathers within the Orthodox world has been ongoing, though the canon is far from complete. I have no idea about the translation of the work of those unique to the Eastern Catholic Church. My guess, based on demographics, is that they are in the same place - some are available, but far from all.
