Daniel Jarlath Carey (2 June 1932 to 4 October 2006) was a Northern Irish sportsperson who played Gaelic football. He played club football with Dundrum and was a member of the Down senior inter-county team from the 1950s until the 1960s. During that period Down broke new ground in the game, and Carey won back-to-back All-Ireland titles with the county in 1960 and 1961. After his playing career he entered public life as a councillor for the Social Democratic and Labour Party on Down District Council, serving from 1977 to 1981. The source article is brief, so this entry records only his dates, his club and county, the two All-Ireland titles and his council service, and makes no claim about his position on the field or his individual honours.
