I found her and my grandfathers marriage certificate, on there her name is: Susan Francis Kruse Jenkins

South Africa, Cape Province, Western Cape Archives Records, 1792-1992; https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L99J-BSSB?cc=1935348&wc=Q8GM-R6Y%3A231864801%2C232154701

I found her marriage certificate to an Ernest Jenkins, on there her name is Susan Francis Kruse (first marriage) South Africa, Civil Marriage Records, 1840-1973; https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS27-G3MD-H?cc=2821281

on my mothers death certificate she has a different name again : Susanna Fransiena Bischoff Vogt 🤷‍♀️

That is all I can find out about her.

Just so you know, I have never been in touch with my family, so there is nobody I can ask.

I know she has died, but I don't know when or where.

Maybe some information on my grandfather would help me too?

His name is Robert Vincent Vogt.

Please help if you can, I have been searching the internet for months for her.

If it helps you can see my pages: Susan Kruse (1925–Deceased) | Person | Family Tree | FamilySearch

Thanks in advance

Suzan thanks for the effort you have put into finding your ancestor, but I think the difference of names may even depend on changing of areas like migrating from one area to another this hinders the change of names like for example a name ndyomugyenyi in Lauren is a visitor. Find out if she was in her birth nation when the name changed and find out the meaning of the name she was called by then because names can be different in writing but have the same meaning.

@Ndyomugyenyi, Frank

Searching relatives of your ancestors is often very helpful.

If you check on gendatabase.com it looks like she died in 1995

SUSAN FRANCIS VOGT KRUSE(d) 1995-02-25VIEW RECORDVERIFIED DECEASED

Its a pay for view site - you can purchase a single day. The record will give you the details as published in the Government Gazette . This should give you her Identity Number. With that you could request a copy of her Vault Birth Record (important to ask for a Vault or un-abridged record) which will give you her parents names.

Be warned it often takes months to get a response from the Department that handles these requests - some researchers pay a document retrieval service to get the documents.

I see from your tree you have identified some potential parents. You have the reference number for fathers estate file, unfortunately 1959 is not available on-line - you can order a copy from the archives they charge about R1 a page.

You can also order her divorce record from the archive as it is there - I've put the reference on Ernest Jenkins
