Dominick Cafferky (died 15 March 1971) was an Irish Clann na Talmhan politician. A farmer from Kilkelly, County Mayo, he was first elected to Dáil Éireann as a Clann na Talmhan Teachta Dála (TD) for the Mayo South constituency at the 1943 general election.[1] He was re-elected at the 1944 general election but lost his seat at the 1948 general election. He re-gained his seat at the 1951 general election but again lost his seat at the 1954 general election. He was an unsuccessful candidate at the 1957 and 1961 general elections.[2]
In the early 1940s, Cafferky was imprisoned with Bernard Commons for one month in Sligo Prison for his part in land agitation in Mayo, after which he won a Dáil seat.[3]
