According to the 1911 census, in 1911 Leslie was living in Dobie, Ontario, with his parents, and his siblings Emery, Freman, Cecil, Leona, and George. He was 18 at that time. The whole family is recorded as being Canadian, with Scotch roots, and their religion was Presbyterian. The father and his oldest 4 sons were all farmers.
