The 1861 Aberdeenshire by-election was fought on 13 February 1861. The previous Liberal MP, George Hamilton-Gordon, had succeeded his father to become 5th Earl of Aberdeen, and had thus become ineligible to sit in the House of Commons.[1] The ensuing by-election was won by the Conservative candidate, William Leslie.[2]
