St. Patrick was actually from Britain, and was kidnapped and brought to Ireland in the early 400AD. Can anyone tell me what was the name of the raider who kidnapped him?

The pirates kidnapped Maewyn from his father's villa and took him back to Ireland, where he was sold to a chief or king named Milchu. Previously Maewyn had known only a life of privilege and luxury; now he was a slave. He believed that this was his punishment for breaking God's commandments." Mar 17 06, 4:26 PM
