There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Aylmer, both in the Baronetage of Ireland. Both titles are extant.[1]

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.[1]

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.[1]
