Sorry I got my St George threads mixed up :-)
St George was certainly not Turkish. He was ethnically a Greek - a Cappadocian Greek: Cappadocia (not itself a Greek province) being a part of ancient Anatolia. Those regions only became Turkic over time as the tribes moved west.
And modern Turkey is a comparatively new county.
