George Gale (aeronaut)
George Gale (1797?–1850) was an English stage performer and balloonist.
==Early life==
Gale was, according to the register of his burial, born about 1797. He was originally an actor in small parts in London minor theatres. He became a great favourite of Andrew Ducrow. In 1831 he went to America, and was claimed to have played Mazeppa for two hundred nights at the Bowery Theatre in New York (he did play at least about 45 consecutive performances). He afterwards traveled in the west and joined a tribe of native Americans. He brought six of them, with their chief, "Ma Caust", to London, and was scarcely distinguishable from his companions. They were exhibited at the Victoria Theatre till their popularity declined. Sir Augustus Frederick D'Este had become interested in them, and procured Gale an appointment as coast blockade inspector in the north of Ireland. On the strength of this appointment, which he held for seven years, he afterwards assumed the title of lieutenant.
