     Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias was a witness where Darerca verch Calpurnius sister of St. Patrick of Ireland.3,4 His original name was Succat — a Celtic name meaning victorious.1 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias was son of Calphurn, grandson of Potaide.5 Also called Saint Patrick of Ireland. He was born circa 398 at Britain. He was born in Britain of a Romanized family. It is not possible to say with any assurance when Patrick was born.1,6 He was the son of Calpurnius of Britain and N. N. of Wales.1,2 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias was torn by Irish raiders from the villa of his father and carried into slavery in Ireland in 414.6 He was spent six bleak years spent as a herdsman, and turned with fervour to his faith between 414 and 420 at Ireland.6 He heard in a dream that the ship in which he was to escape was ready, at whcih he fled his master and found passage to Britain, where he came near to starvation and suffered a second brief captivity before at last being reunited with his family at Ireland.6 Annals of Ulster 423: "Patrick arrived in Ireland in the ninth year of the reign of Theodosius the Less and in the first year of the episcopate of Xistus, 42nd bishop of the Roman Church. So Bede, Maxcellinus and Isidore compute in their chronicles. / Patricius peruenit ad Hiberniam nono anno regni Teodosii Minoris, primo anno episcopatus Xisti xl.ii. episcopi Romane Eclesie. Sic enumerant Beda & Marcillinus & Issiodorus in Cronicis suis."7 He was should not be confused with Palladius, who was ordained to be "the first bishop to the Irish believers in Christ" by Pope Celestine the First in 431.6 He took the name of Patrick (Patricius) when he became the second bishop to Ireland circa 432.1 He was a witness where Fedhlim mac Laeghaire granted to God and (St.) Patrick, Ath Truim, in 432.8 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias arrived, one year after Palladius did, in Ireland, and proceeded to baptize and bless the Irish, men, women, sons, and daughters, except a few who did not consent to receive faith or baptism from him, in 432.7 He was granted the land on which he founded Ath Truim, by Fedhlim, son of Laeghaire, son of Niall, to God and to him, Loman, and Fortchern, in 432.8 He witnessed the baptism of rí Mumhan Áengus mac Nad Froích Éoganachta between 432 and 453; He was baptized by St. Patrick. When the Saint offering to fasten his Staff or Crozier in the ground, accidently happened to pierce the foot of Æneas through, whereby he lost much blood; but thinking it part of the ceremony of baptism, he patiently endured it until the Saint was done.9 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias was approved in the Catholic faith in 441.10 He was flourishing in the fervour of the Faith and in the doctrine of Christ in 443 at Ulster, Ireland.11 He was a witness where King of Alclud Ceretic Guletic of the Damnonii admonished by St. Patrick to stop capturing youths in Ireland to sell into slavery in Pictland in 450.12 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias admonished Ceretic of Alclud to stop selling the youths of Ireland as slaves in Pictland in 450.12 He is said, by some books, to have died in this year in 457.13 Annals of the Four Masters 457: "Ard Machab was founded by Saint Patrick, it having been granted to him by Daire, son of Finnchadh, son of Eoghan, son of Niallan. Twelve men were appointed by him for building the town. He ordered them, in the first place, to erect an archbishop's city there, and a church for monks, for nuns, and for the other orders in general, for he perceived that it would be the head and chief of the churches of Ireland in general. / Ard Macha d'fothuccadh lá Naomh Patraicc iarna edhbairt do ó Dhaire mac Fionnchadha mic Eoghain mic Nialláin. Ro h-oirdnedh da fhir dhécc lais fri cumhdach an bhaile.

( (an unknown value)).14 He was a witness where Ercc mac Echach visited by St. Patrick, before the St.'s death in 461, who prophesied that Fergus, supposedly already an adult at this time, would be the father of a great nation before 461.15 Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick Succat ap Calpurnias prophesied for Erc that his son Fergus would found a great nation, that of Dál Riata, before 461.15 Annals of Ulster 461: "Here some record the repose of Patrick. / Hic alii quietem Patrici dicunt."16 He died on 17 March 461 at Saul, near Downpatrick, County Down, Ireland.15,16 Annals of the Four Masters 493: "Patrick, son of Calphurn, son of Potaide, archbishop, first primate, and chief apostle of Ireland, whom Pope Celestine the First had sent to preach the Gospel and disseminate religion and piety among the Irish, was the person who separated them from the worship of idols and spectres, who conquered and destroyed the idols which they had for worshipping; who had expelled demons and evil spirits from among them, and brought them from the darkness of sin and vice to the light of faith and good works, and who guided and conducted their souls from the gates of hell (to which they were going), to the gates of the kingdom of heaven. It was he that baptized and blessed the men, women, sons and daughters of Ireland, with their territories and tribes, both fresh waters and sea inlets. It was by him that many cells, monasteries, and churches were erected throughout Ireland; seven hundred churches was their number. It was by him that bishops, priests, and persons of every dignity were ordained; seven hundred bishops, and three thousand priests was their number. He worked so many miracles and wonders, that the human mind is incapable of remembering or recording the amount of good which he did upoh earth. When the time of St. Patrick's death approached, he received the Body of Christ from the hands of the holy Bishop Tassach, in the 122nd year of his age, and resigned his spirit to heaven. / Patraicc, mac Calpuirn, mic Potaide, airdeaspuc, ceitt-priomhaidh & ardapstol Ereann, do chuir an céd Celestinus Papa do phroichept soiscela & do shíoladh irsi & crabhaidh do Ghaoidhealaibh, as é ro etarsccar iaid-sidhe fri h-adhradh iodhal & arracht, ro chosccair & ro choimbhris na h-iodhla batar aga n-adhradh aca.

     Theodoric II, rex Gotthorum was the grandson of Alaric I.3 He was born before 420.1 He was the son of Theodoric I, rex Gotthorum and N. N. the Visigoth.1,2 Theodoric II, rex Gotthorum witnessed the death of Thorismund, rex Gotthorum in 453; d.s.p. He was murdered by his brother Theoderic and Frideric.4,5 King of the Visigoths at Aquitaine between 453 and 466.3 Theodoric II, rex Gotthorum was subject of a letter, which described him, by Sidonius Apollinaris to his brother-in-law Agricola circa 454.6 He was a witness where Gaïus Sollius Modestus Sidonius Apollinaris, bishop of Clermont sent a letter to his brother-in-law Agricola describing Theodoric II, Gothic King of Spain, circa 454.6 Theodoric II, rex Gotthorum was a witness where Frideric Balthi sent by his brother Theodoric against the Spanish Bacaudae in 454.7 To [his brother-in-law] Agricola AD. 454 (?)

"You have often begged a description of Theodoric the Gothic king, whose gentle breeding fame commends to every nation; you want him in his quantity and quality, in his person, and the manner of his existence. I gladly accede, as far as the limits of my page allow, and highly approve so fine and ingenuous a curiosity.

"Well, he is a man worth knowing, even by those who cannot enjoy his close acquaintance, so happily have Providence and Nature joined to endow him with the perfect gifts of fortune; his way of life is such that not even the envy which lies in wait for kings can rob him of his proper praise. And first as to his person. He is well set up, in height above the average man, but below the giant. His head is round, with curled hair retreating somewhat from brow to crown. His nervous neck is free from disfiguring knots. The eyebrows are bushy and arched; when the lids droop, the lashes reach almost half-way down the cheeks. The upper ears are buried under overlying locks, after the fashion of his race. The nose is finely aquiline; the lips are thin and not enlarged by undue distension of the mouth. Every day the hair springing from his nostrils is cut back; that on the face springs thick from the hollow of the temples, but the razor has not yet come upon his cheek, and his barber is assiduous in eradicating the rich growth on the lower part of the face.2 Chin, throat, and neck are full, but not fat, and all of fair complexion ; seen close, their colour is fresh as that of youth; they often flush, but from modesty, and not from anger. His shoulders are smooth, the upper- and forearms strong and hard ; hands broad, breast prominent; waist receding. The spine dividing the broad expanse of back does not project, and you can see the springing of the ribs ; the sides swell with salient muscle, the well-girt flanks are full of vigour. His thighs are like hard horn ; the knee-joints firm and masculine; the knees themselves the comeliest and least wrinkled in the world. A full ankle supports the leg, and the foot is small to bear such mighty limbs."6 Theodoric II, rex Gotthorum died in 466. Assassinated by his brother, Euric.1

     Valamir's deeds were interpreted by Ostrogoths in Italy as actions of a Hun, since no Goth would ever go into battle against a fellow Goth. Rather than being a period of Gothic denial of Hunnic hegemony, it was instead a period of consolodating Gothic power in the Amal dynasty. He was confused with Balamber, but this latter man was a Hunnic King in 376. King of the Huns. Fides.3 King of Goths. Valamir, King of the Ostrogoths was a witness where Vinitharius, Conqueror of the Venedi-Slavs defeated and killed by Balamber, the Hunnic King, who rejected his claim of independence after 400.4 Valamir, King of the Ostrogoths was born before 413 at Pannonia. He was the son of Vandalarius, Conqueror of the Vandals.2,3 Valamir, King of the Ostrogoths was elected to rule the Goths following 40 years in which the Goths were without a king before 443. He lived circa 443 at between the rivers Scarniunga and Aqua Nigra, Pannonia. He was defeated an army of Huns and sent word of victory to his brother Thiudimer in 443. "Now It happened that the sons of Attila, regarding the Goths as deserters from their rule, came against them as though they were seeking fugitive slaves, and attacked Valamir alone, when his brothers knew nothing of it. He sustained their attack, though he had but few supporters, and after harassing them a long time, so utterly overwhelmed them that scarcely any portion of the enemy remained. The remnant turned in flight and sought the parts of Scythia which border on the stream of the river Danaper, which the Huns call in their own tongue the Var. Thereupon he sent a messenger of good tidings to his brother Thiudimer, and on the very day the messenger arrived he found even greater joy in the house of Thiudimer. For on that day his son Theodoric was born, of a concubine Erelieva indeed, and yet a child of good hope." He was a witness where Theudericus Magnus, rex Italiae was, at age seven, offered to the Romans as a hostage of peace in 461.1 Valamir, King of the Ostrogoths died between 468 and 469.3

Motherunfree woman (?)2
     Gaiseric, King of the Vandals was related to Huneric, King of the Vandals; son of Gaiseric, King of the Vandals.3 The name "Gaiseric" means "Caesar-King". Also called Genseric.3 Gaiseric, King of the Vandals also went by the name of "The Rod of God". He was born circa 389 at Hungary. He was the son of Godegisel, King of the Vandals and unfree woman (?).2 King of the Vandals at Spain between 419 and 428. Gaiseric, King of the Vandals succeeded his brother Gunderic in 426 at Baetica (modern Andalusia), Spain.3 King of the Alans between 428 and 477.3 He was orchestrated a mass move of his people, purported to number some 80,000, to Maghrib (North Africa) in May 428. Evidently he was invited to Africa by the governor, Count Bonifacius, who wished to use the military strength of the Vandals in his struggle against the imperial government.1 He was advanced eastwards in Maghrib and took Hippo Regius in 430. They took the city after a long siege during which St. Augustine died.1 He was turned on Count Bonifacius, and defeated him, in 430 at Maghrib. He then crushed the joint forces of the Eastern and Western empires that had been sent against him.1 He was concluded an agreement with Rome that the Vandal state in Africa became a Federate of Rome in 435.1 King of the Vandals at Maghrib between 439 and 477. He overthrew Roman overlordship and seized the important mediterranean city of Carthage, allowing him to create an independent autocracy, a second power in the mediterranean alongside Rome, on 19 October 439 at Maghrib.3 He was concluded a treaty with Rome in 442. Therein the Vandals were recognized as masters of proconsular Africa, Byzacena, and part of Numidia. Gaiseric was perhaps the most perceptive barbarian king of the 5th century in realizing the total weakness of the empire. Gaiseric's fleet soon came to control much of the western Mediterranean, and he annexed the Balearic Islands, Sardinia, Corsica, and Sicily.1 He was a witness where Licinia Eudokia Theodosia, augusta invited the Vandal Geiseric to Rome in 455.4 Gaiseric, King of the Vandals sacked Rome in June 455 at Italy.1 He defeated the first major Roman effort, led by the Emperor Majorian, to remove him in 460.1 He defeated the second attempt of Rome, led by Basiliscus, to oust him in 468.1 He died on 25 January 477 at Carthage, North Africa. In his life Gaiseric witnessed the Vandals moving from Hungary, through all of Europe, and supervised their entry into, and occupation of, North Africa.
