So if this guy is a descendent of Saint Patrick. Why was he born in Greece? And the date of his birth is 100 years before Saint Patrick?

He wasn't actually born in Greece, if indeed he existed -- as you see from the other discussion thread, it looks like two Anwns have been conflated (at least) and the "rex grecorum" that is in one of the manuscripts comes from where we know not at the moment.

What is your source that says he is a descendant of St. Patrick?
