(17**-18**) John Francis Long, stage manager and possibly an amateur actor in Cape Town in the 1840s.
He was a leading member of All the World's a Stage. Specifically mentioned as stage manager for their productions of Charles XII (Planche) and The Irish Tutor (Glengall) on 22 August 1845 (and he is possibly the actor "Mr L" who appears in both pieces).
He was also one of the trustees of their planned theatre (the Drury Lane Theatre) in Cape Town (1846).
