Patrick Henry meant that although he was from Virginia, his allegiance must be foremost to the United States of America as an American.
To me, that sounds like: Loyalty to the Union (of the 13 states) is more important than loyalty to an individual state.
What Patrick Henry meant when he said, "I am not a Virginian but an American," was the distinction between Virginians, New Yorkians, Pennsylvanians, and New Englanders. He realized if they worked together there would be better results.
Are you sure you don't mean 'Patrick Henry'? If so it was Patrick James Henry.

At this time in American history people viewed themselves as from being a particular area or colony rather than as a part of a country as a whole. Stating this meant he saw himself as an American rather than just from Virginia.
