Humphrey Kelleher was an Irish Gaelic footballer who played at club level with Millstreet in County Cork and the Duhallow divisional side, and at inter-county level with the Cork senior football team. He played both football and hurling with Millstreet, winning consecutive Duhallow Junior Hurling Championship titles in 1962 and 1963 while still a teenager, and later added three Crowley Cup titles and the Kelleher Shield in 1971. After helping the Cork junior team win the Munster title in 1970 he was drafted onto the senior team and won three Munster Senior Football Championship medals between 1971 and 1974. Lined out at full-back, he was part of the Cork side that beat Galway in the 1973 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final, and he won Railway Cup medals with Munster in 1975 and 1976. Injury ended his playing career in 1978, and he died in 2005 at the age of 59.
