According to fossil records, the earliest fossils of liverworts are found in the late Devonian, of mosses in the early cretaceous,  and vascular plats In the late Silurian/early Devoia. Anthoceros (hornworts) Fossils have not been discovered. Reading fossil  records we would say that vascular plants appeared first , than mosses and then liverworts.
