The community was founded in 1878 by Congressman John F. Lacey in order to make sure the Iowa Central Railroad came through that part of Mahaska County. The town was laid out by Lacey and Jeremiah Everett. Today there are no active businesses in Lacey, but back in 1887, the town had 100 residents, two general stores, an implement, a hardware store, a stockyard, blacksmith shop, grain elevator, church (which still exists today), school, grange hall, and depot. This is a town plat of Lacey in 1913.

Leighton, John Carver, and W.A. Burt. The town was named after William C. Leighton after the town was platted. Today, the town inhabits about 150, but the community never inhabited more than 270 people, so the town has never experienced what you would call a "boom", but it has never been consumed by neighboring communities in the county either, so it is safe to say that Leighton has held its own ground from its inception. This is a map of Leighton as it appeared in 1913.
