Roland J. "Duke" Ealey (June 20, 1914 – March 23, 1992) is a former member of the Virginia House of Delegates from Richmond. In 1983, following the death of Delegate James S. Christian, Jr., who had been elected to represent the newly created 70th district, Ealey won a special election for the position. He served until his own death in 1992.
In 2004 the House of Delegates designated June 20 as "Delegate Roland J. Ealey Day" in Virginia.
