His grandparents had extensive roots in British North America as descendants from the Schuyler family, the Delancey family, and the Van Cortlandt family. He was engaged to the musician, Violet Gordon-Woodhouse, but she broke it off when human sexuality was explained to her.〔Douglas-Home, Jessica, "Violet : The Life and Loves of Violet Gordon Woodhouse", 1997〕 He married Leila Peel in 1894. He commissioned major alterations and renovations of Firle Place by Billy Freeman Thomas. Gage had a new staircase and garden terraces installed at the manor for his wife to entertain nobility and royalty. ==Family== He was the son of Hon.
