تاريخ
مقاطعة لسلي تأسست في 1878. وقد أخذت اسمها من پرستون لسلي، حاكم كنتكي (1871-1875).
The Hurricane Creek mine disaster in a Leslie County coal mine in 1970 killed 38 people.
After resigning the presidency, Richard Nixon made his first public appearance at the Leslie County dedication of a recreation facility named for him. County Judge-Executive C. Allen Muncy claimed the Nixon invitation prompted the U.S. Department of Justice to obtain indictments of him and his associates on vote-fraud charges; while on appeal for his conviction, he won renomination in the Republican primary but lost the 1981 general election to independent Kermit Keen.
