Proverb from Lovelace and Georgia (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adage

'proverb' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'lovelace and georgia' is the wordplay.
'lovelace' becomes 'ada' (computing pioneer Ada Lovelace).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'georgia' becomes 'ge' (abbreviation for the European country).
'ada'+'ge'='ADAGE'

'from' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for adage that I've seen before include "True proverb or saying" , "Saying, saw" , "say it again and again!" , "Old saying; proverb" , "Old saw" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
