Laslett is a family name originating from East Kent, England. The name first appears around the middle of the 16th century in the Parish register of Harbledown near Canterbury, Kent spelt as Lawslet or Lauslet. A 1586 legal deposition by Roger Lacelett (Archdeaconry Court of Canterbury Deposition Register PRC 39/11 folio 176 verso) records that the Laslett family migrated from Nantwich in Cheshire in the mid 1540s and took up the Parsonage Farm at Harbledown.
