Hello: I am using Sweave to generate a PDF with figures and tables and was wondering if is possible to carry on table headers and some kind of caption like 'Continued' to the next PDF page when creating long tables.

I use Sweave and longtable but have not used them together.
It can be done but you may find the package booktabs helpful for headers
and footers for longtable and tables
as it allows you to put different first and last page headers to the rest.
Something like (untested)
PS You do not need to put \set longtables or something like that if you
have the latest longtable package as it is no longer required
% all table headers
\toprule
\addlinespace[3pt]
\multicolumn{1}{c}{colname 1} & ...\\
\midrule
\addlinespace[3pt]
\endhead
% if want different first 1
\toprule
\addlinespace[3pt]
\multicolumn{1}{c}{colname 1} & ...\\
\midrule
\addlinespace[3pt]
\endfirsthead
% last footer
\bottomrule
\endlastfoot
% other footers
\addlinespace[5pt]
\multicolumn{3}{r}{Continued next page}\\
\midrule
\endfoot
