With regards to "Patrick dying at Saul"
Local tradition has it that Patrick died at Raholp which is about 1/2mile down the road from Saul and where, to this day, the remains of what is believed to be the oldest Church in Ireland, St. Tassach's Church, are to be found.
St. Tassach, Patrick's first convert, gave Patrick the Last Rites, according to tradition.
NB. "Tassach" is also "Tassac" depending on whether one uses New Irish Gaelic or Old Irish Gaelic.
NB. Raholp is also believed, through tradition, to be the place on Strangford Lough where St. Patrick first arrived to convert the Irish, walking up the now known "Myra Road" to where St. Tassach’s Church ruins now stand on St. Patrick's Road.

What can you tell me of the history of the ancient Chapel dedicated to St Patrick ( no remains )built in the parish of Kirkpatrick, Closeburn,Thornhill, Dfs & Galloway. The Chapel apparently gave its name to the ancient family of Kirkpatrick of Closeburn Castle nearby, and the village and the farm of Kirkpatrick.
