The Duke of Kent.
Prince Hall became a Freemason in the ordinary way. He was initiated in a Lodge chartered by the Grand Lodge of England. He belonged to and was the Master of such a Lodge.
Premier Grand Lodge of England was created in 1717.
Freemasonry is not organized like that. Generally, the masonic lodges in one country or part of a country are grouped together into Grand Lodges. So, there is a Grand Lodge of Victoria, in Australia, and a Grand Lodge of North Carolina, in the United States, and a Grand Lodge of Portugal, and a Grand Lodge of India, and so on. The leader of each Grand Lodge is called the Grand Master. Usually, the Grand Master is elected for a one or two year term. In some cases, they can serve much longer terms: the Grand Master of the Grand Orient (means the same as Grand Lodge) of Italy has a fifteen year term and the Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England, the Duke of Kent, has a lifetime appointment. In some cases, there is more than one Grand Lodge in the same area. Sometimes they coexist, but more often they are in competition with one another, and other Grand Lodges have to decide which is legitimate.
United Grand Lodge of England was created on 1717-06-24.
Yes there are some 57 Lodges under the Constitution of the United Grand Lodge of England. Ghana forms its own Provincial Grand Lodge with its own Provincial Grand Master. See the related link.
As of 2 January 2010, the Grand Master of Masons of the United Grand Lodge of England is His Royal Highness Prince Edward, Duke of Kent. He has held this position since 1967.
Tradition.
As of the Grand Secretary's report in October 2009, there are 108,332 Master Masons under the Grand Lodge of Ohio.
There are indeed Masonic Lodges in Ghana, but Ghana does not have its own Grand Lodge. Its Lodges belong to the United Grand Lodge of England, but they have their own District Grand Lodge. Their District Grand Master is, at the time of writing, Bro. Kow Abaka Quansah. See the attached link for more information
The United Grand Lodge of England has over 8,000 Lodges, but not all of these are in England. Some are in Wales, and in various parts of Africa and Asia which do not have a local Grand Lodge.

There is no single head of Freemasonry. Each Grand Lodge has its own Grand Master who is nominally in charge of the subsidiary lodges in that region; but he has no control outside of his own Grand Lodge's jurisdiction.
