I had always thought he was British, and according to some historical websites, his place of birth is unknown, and could be Scotland, Wales or England, so I will play it safe and say he was born in Great Britain.

There is disagreement over exactly where Patrick was born but the consensus seems to be that he was born at Kilpatrick, near Dumbarton, in Scotland, in the year 387.
Other sources say he was born in Wales.
So we really dont know his exact birthdate.

Patrick was born in Roman Britain at Banna Venta Berniae, although some cite Bannavem Taberniae in Britain. (Same place, slightly different name.) Most don’t point to Scotland at his birthplace, and certainly he was not born in Ireland. Historians seem to agree he was enslaved at 16 and taken to Ireland where he… Oh, sorry, more info that you asked for. 🙂

We are not positive where Patrick was born we think it was in Roman Britain.

Bannavem Taberniae in Britain
Symon March 17, 2011 at 7:30 pm

He says he was born in Bannavem Taberniae but there is no official placing of that place in Britain but lots of different ideas of where it may be which are usually Celtic areas like Scotland or Wales. For some reason Jocks and Taffs seem to think that Celts were the origional people in Britain even though they came from Europe and settled in Britain. We had the Beaker people before the Celts. I think Bannavem Taberniae is in Somerset and what is now known as Banwell, five miles east of Weston-super-Mare.A settlement of late Roman date is known in the area. The archaeology of the region, which was highly Romanised, suggests Somerset was a plausible location for Patrick’s family estate – unlike some of the remoter locations suggested – while placename evidence supports a Somerset location directly. The funny thing is that St Patricks day has got so big because of the US, it is not that big of a deal in the Irish homeland but what is ironic is that they have created a day that celerbrates what is most likely a person from England.
