Gouws Family dilemma.

[Lorand]

It seems my grandmother, SUSARA MARIA ALETTA GOUWS may have been illegitimate.
 She was born on 22 April 1886/7 in Britstown, Northern Cape Province.
Her mother may have been Helen (Ellie) Gouws  (nee Murray), sister to Andrew Murray, the preacher, but on Helen's death cert. there is no mention of a marriage or of having a child, though it seems she did have a daughter born out of wedlock according to (Cape Province Probate 1834-1989 in Familysearch.org.   
On my grandmother's marriage cert. on 30 January 1906 it mentions her foster-father as David Johannes Erasmus, but not her mother's name.
I am not sure if Gouws is her real father's name or an adoptive parent's name or whether Helen Murray did indeed marry a Gouws.
Is there anyone researching the Gouws family who can shed some light for me and be able to produce a birth certificate.
Many thanks

I saw that her death notice had 1881 as her birth year (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-DB57-3JT?i=1&cc=1407787 ), so I threw the net a bit wider and came up with a possible 22 April 1882 birth:

PS In 1906 David Johannes Erasmus was her "stiefvader", so he was her step father and not her foster-father ...(https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C953-SS46-3?i=325&cc=1910846)

Thanks for the help.  I am aware that there is a discrepancy in the birth records of Susara Gouws, so will carry on searching for the birth certificate, which might prove difficult.

What makes it even more difficult is that Civil registration of births didn't start in the Cape until 1895! There is some stuff before 1895, but I don't think that it is Cape wide.
I'd be fairly amazed if the 1882 baptism would turn out to be for someone else. There are too many coincidences.
