What family has most All Ireland Senior Medals

youtheman

The recent anouncement of Darragh O' Sea got me thinking : what family (i.e. siblings) has the most All Ireland Senior Medals (Hurling or Football).

I reckon it has to be the Spillanes of Kerry (Pat, Mike and Tom). They must have 15-18 between them (only guessing). Was there a family of Hendersons from Kilkenny that had a few as well.

The O' Sheas must be there in the top five.

Anyone got the right answer?.

According to Pat's wiki, they have the record;

The three Spillane brothers - Pat, Tom and Mick - hold the record number of All-Ireland senior winners' medals in either hurling or football with nineteen. Including medals won as non-playing substitutes Pat won eight, Tom won seven and Mick won four.


The Henderson's only have a measly 11 All-Irelands between them! The O'Se's have 15, but I'd say that the Spillane's with 19 are the record holders.

Angela and Ann Downey have 24 between them!

There were 7 brothers but Kilkenny didn't win that much while most of them were playing. I woudn't think they wrere close to 19.
