Birthplace of St Patrick debated by Irish scholar
Prof. Dwyer argues against Dr Healy’s Scotland birthplace claim for St Patrick. He cites the Confession, Fiacc's Hymn, and early manuscripts to support a Gaul or Armoric Britain origin, notes Patrick was captured in Bonaven Tabernia and landed in Ireland, and dismisses Nemtur and Dumbarton as unsupported.
