That is basically what I said too. Before Dragonborn DLC though, I believe they have been saying that St. Alesia is, at least what everyone in Tamriel though. It would seem that before our Dragonborn was attack by cultists, only those on Solstheim really knew of Miraak being the first Dragonborn ever. Ofcourse I know that Miraak was the first Dragonborn, but before final DLC for Skyrim, the same was true for St. Alesia. That, or before the events of Dragonborn, everyone in Skyrim forgot about Miraak, since they all cursed his name and such.
