PLEASE take care NOT to merge (and/or confuse) the two cousins of roughly the same age.
In looking at resources and her age at the date of marriage I personally think it's 2 different people. [I agree - they, in fact, were cousins - both being named after their grandmother, MJMC du Plessis, born 1815. Johann Ahlers, 26 May 2018]
THIS ONE was married first to PH Henning and then, as a widow, to FPA van der Walt:

Her cousin is Martha Johanna Magdalena Catharina Roux and was married to GC Roux:
