L. Meurant
(17**-1826?*) (Also listed simply as Meurant by F.C.L. Bosman, 1928) Possibly a Swiss immigrant and French theatre entrepeneur, dance- and music- instructor at the Cape during the early 1800s, till his untimely death round about 1926.
It seems probable that he may have been the father of Louis Henri Meurant (the later journalist and language activist) and Miss L. Meurant, both of whom performed in French and Dutch plays in Cape Town as children in 1825.
