Birth*Suzanne Taillefert was born on 26 May 1685 in Château-Thierry, Brie, Champagne, France.3,1
 
Marriage*She married Jean Gardé in 1700.4
 
MarriageShe married Pierre Cronjé, son of PN Cronjé, before January 1709 de Caep de Goede Hoop. This marriage has been assumed and the date based on the appearance of Pieter Cronje in the 1709 opgaafrol with a wife, a son and a daughter. These could only have been Susanna Taillefer and her son and daughter with her former, deceased, husband Jean Garde. However, in the baptism record of the couple's first child Marie in June 1710, the mother, in her capacity as witness to the baptism, is described as veuve, widow, which raises the (remote?) possibility that she and Pierre Cronje were not yet legally married.5,6
 
MarriageShe married Jacob Naudé on 10 May 1722.7,8
 
Death*She died on 13 February 1723 at age 37.3,1
