Aylmer baronets

Arms of Aylmer of Balrath: Argent, a cross sable between four Cornish choughs proper

There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Aylmer, both in the Baronetage of Ireland. Both titles are extant.

The Aylmer Baronetcy, of Donadea in the County of Kildare, was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 25 January 1622 for Gerald Aylmer of Oughterany, County Kildare: he was the son of Richard Aylmer of Lyons Hill and Elinor Fleming, of the family of Baron Slane. The Aylmers were a wealthy Anglo-Irish landowning family. The 13th Baronet was a recipient of the Victoria Cross.

The Aylmer Baronetcy, of Balrath in the County of Meath, was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 6 November 1662. For more information on this creation, see Baron Aylmer.
