Paddy and <a href="/wiki/Edwin_Carolan" title="Edwin Carolan">Edwin Carolan</a> were part of the <a href="/wiki/1952_All-Ireland_Senior_Football_Championship" title="1952 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship">1952 All-Ireland SFC</a>-winning team, which defeated Meath after a replay which was brought about by a controversial Edwin Carolan point. Pady Carolan became the last surviving member of the 1952 team, and thus the last surviving All-Ireland SFC winner from Cavan, when Brian O'Reilly died in November 2021. Piddy Carolan's son <a href="/wiki/Ronan_Carolan" title="Ronan Carolan">Ronan</a> played for Cavan between 1986 and 1999, winning an Ulster SFC in 1997, thus giving three generations of the Carolan family Ulster SFC medals.
