Bob Aylward (2 February 1911 – 18 July 1974)[1] was a Fianna Fáil politician from County Kilkenny in Ireland. He was a senator from 1973 until his death in 1974.

He stood unsuccessfully as a Fianna Fáil candidate for Dáil Éireann in the Carlow–Kilkenny constituency at three successive general elections: 1965, 1969 and 1973. After his 1973 defeat he was elected to the 13th Seanad Éireann by the Agricultural Panel, but died in office the following year.[2]

His son Liam (born 1952) is a former Fianna Fáil MEP and TD, and his other son Bobby (born 1955) was elected as a TD at the 2007 general election.[2]
