A timely lesson in research. the null device (cool name), posts on why people have got St. Patricks day wrong, saying St. Patrick was Roman. He quotes Patrick Farley and his Bring Back the Snakes Day post as his source.

According to the History Channel, which is a great history site by the way, St. Patrick was British (assuming Welsh), and taken to Ireland by raiders at the age of 16. Roman? Unlikely.

Then again, Patrick does call his blog Patrick Farley Exposes His Ignorance. I assume this is sarcasm, as he does get the rest of it right.
