Well sort of. He was British, not Irish. He spoke Brythonic. But he fled to Ireland during the Anglo-Saxon invasions and spread Christianity there.
St. Patrick was kidnapped from Wales and brought to Ireland, where he was held in slavery and where he later preached Christianity to the Irish . P.S. he also rid the country of snakes when he had a bit of time on his hands!
