Born to hotelier parents on rue de l'oranger in Dieppe, his godfather was Nicolas Boiloy, a businessman in the Saint-Remy parish, and his godmother was the widow Michel Martel, a businesswoman in the parish of Saint-Jacques. Like his brother Jean-Vincent Deniéport, Louis was a brilliant student at the Oratorian school and won the general prize in 1785, though he had to enter the Oratorian house very young. His passion for the sea and probable aptitude for action rather than philosophical meditation interrupted his studies aged 14 when he began serving on the privateers that were common in the port of Dieppe. On these he gained seagoing skills in the subaltern posts of novice, matelot and aide-pilote.

The RN has evolved a rich volume of slang, known as Jackspeak. Nowadays the British sailor is usually Jack (or Jenny) rather than the more historical Jack Tar, which is an allusion to either the former requirement to tar long hair or the tar-stained hands of sailors. Nicknames for a British sailor, applied by others, include Matelot (pronounced "matlow", and derived from mid 19th century (nautical slang): from French, variant of matenot which was also taken from the Middle Dutch mattenoot ‘bed companion’, because sailors had to share hammocks in twos, and Limey, from the Lime-juice given to British sailors to combat scurvy - mainly redundant in use within the Royal Navy. Royal Marines are fondly known as Bootnecks or often just as Royals.

Long was having difficulties having the promised grants made available to him but he had been assured by Seigneur Fraser that he would not have to pay rents to him as long as he stayed on his improved lands but that his sons, if he decided to stay or improve lands, would be dealt with differently. It also gives us some interesting geographical information about the location of Long's Farm and Inn near the Landing Place, the conditions of his having been placed there by Finlay, Deputy Postmaster General in 1809 (according to a letter of that date – not yet found), and the conditions of rent that Philip does not have to pay to Fraser but that his son's would if he decided to stay in the vicinity of the Lake. We also discover in the Report that Pierre Matelot (i.e. Methot), also had some land 1 ½ miles below Degele (today Sainte-Rose-du-Dégelis) at the Perche River, and that Methot would be willing to stay in the area if he could only obtain a grant of land.
