Jack Lehane, recorded in the source as John Lehane, was an Irish Gaelic footballer who lived from 1884 to 18 August 1938 and played as a forward for the Cork senior football team. He made his first appearance for Cork during the 1907 championship and then held a regular place in the starting fifteen for a number of seasons. In that period he won one All-Ireland medal and two Munster medals, the provincial and national honours that mark a successful run in the Gaelic football inter-county championship of his day. At club level he was a multiple county championship medallist with Macroom, the club he represented in the Cork county competition. The English Wikipedia article gives only a short career summary without a birth place, a full list of seasons or individual match details, so this entry records the playing position, the county and club affiliations and the honours that the article states.
