I had a look at doing this for you, but the resolution of the image is too low to permit a tidy up

My best guess:
Martha Caroline Robinson born 17th May 1850, baptised 5th August 1850, daughter of Alfred Douat Robinson and Jeanetta Susanna nee Nel. Godfather and godmother are also Nels but I can only make out second name of godmother, Susanna. Need a higher resolution image really, what was the source of the image? Residence could be Winterberg or Webersburg, or perhaps ending in dorf?

Melba,
There's an online tree for Janetta and family. One witness looks to be her father, Jeremias Andries Nel. Has her husband as Alfred Dorrel Robinson. The other is Gesina Susanna Nel. Place Waterkloof.
It's in South Africa.

Well discovered jamjar ;D. I thought Douat seemed unlikely, as it's French, although there were many French settlers in SA (Huguenots).

Thanks all for the feedback. Just for info document came from LDS family search. Name is Dorrel.
I like to try collect copies of all the documents I can find. So I tried to improve the document.
Many thanks Will
