Was George St of England REALLY English ?

No he was a roman soldier. He is also the patron saint of Aragon, Catalonia, Ethiopia, Georgia, Greece, Lithuania, Palestine, Portugal, and Russia, as well as the cities of Amersfoort, Beirut, Bteghrine, Cáceres (Spain), Ferrara, Freiburg, Genoa, Ljubljana, Gozo, Pomorie, Qormi, Lod, and Moscow

And he killed a dragon! :)

yes he was Roman

I suspect that George’s “dragon” might have been kin to Patrick’s “snakes.”
