Jacob Elmer Long (1880-1955) was the Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina from 1925 to 1929.
Long was born in Yanceyville, North Carolina in 1880, the son of lawyer Jacob A. Long. J. Elmer Long also became a lawyer after graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1903. He served as private secretary to U.S. Rep. Charles M. Stedman and was elected to at least two terms in the North Carolina House of Representatives from Alamance County as a Democrat.
After serving one term (the maximum then allowed) as Lieutenant Governor, Long resumed the practice of law in Durham, North Carolina and served as president of the North Carolina Bar Association in 1933-1934. [1] [2]
