Trying to find Great grandparents John William Gage and Mary Jane Farrington. They had a daughter Rose Maud Gage born around 1890 in Essex England. I don't know if they came to Western Australia or stayed in England. Rose married Richard Albert May in 1913 in Western Australia. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much for all your help. I really appreciate it. This lady is my Grandmother(on my fathers side) and sad to say I know nothing about her. Until now all my searching has been done in Australia so Im a fish out of water with the UK side of things. Where would I go to buy certificates?
