Denis "Lyonsie" Coughlan (10 September 1871 – 24 July 1903) was an Irish sportsperson. He played hurling with his local club Blackrock and was a member of the Cork senior inter-county team from 1891 until 1892. Biography The Coughlan family lived in Blackrock, Cork at the turn of the 20th century, and the father, John Coughlan, earned his livelihood as a fisherman. All of his sons would later earn their livings on the sea. The Coughlan's also came to be regarded as a famous hurling family in the early years of the championship.
