Some Famous People called Frank Lynch
Frank Lynch (Gaelic footballer)
Frank Lynch (born 1938) is an Irish Gaelic games administrator, Gaelic football manager and former player. His league and championship career with the Louth senior team lasted fourteen seasons from 1956 until 1970.
Born in Haggardstown, County Louth, Lynch was educated at St. Mary's College in Dundalk. At school he was a promising exponent of rugby union and captained the team before being selected to play for Leinster at youths level. Lynch later joined the Geraldines club with whom he won a county junior championship medal in 1966.
After being excluded from the Louth minor because of his rugby exploits, Lynch subsequently joined the senior team and made his debut during the 1956–57 league. Over the following fourteen seasons Lynch had some success, culminating with the winning of a set of All-Ireland and Leinster medals in his debut season. He played his last game for Louth in June 1970.
As a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, Lynch won back-to-back Railway Cup medals in 1961 and 1962.
In retirement from playing, Lynch remained involved as an administrator and coach. He served as chairman of the Louth County Board and also managed the Louth senior team for a time.

Francis Joseph Lynch (15 March 1909 – 10 May 1980) was a British trade union leader and politician.
Lynch was active in the Labour Party from an early age, and served on the City of Salford council from 1934 until 1949. In 1937, he found work as a night patrolman and stoker at the County Mental Hospital in Prestwich, and joined the Hospital and Welfare Services Union. In 1946, this became part of the Confederation of Health Service Employees (COHSE), and Lynch became a full-time organiser for the new union. In 1948, he was appointed as a regional secretary, then in 1954 he became a national officer, and in 1967 was elected as the union's assistant general secretary.
Lynch was elected as general secretary of COHSE in 1969, and set himself a target of doubling the union's membership of 69,000. He achieved this; when he retired, in 1974, membership had risen to 230,000.
