Hello @Tom Randolph,
I can't decipher the first word which you read as "fiat" and I'm not sure that word begins with an "f". Compare what you think is an "f" in the word "fiat" with the "f" in "Wolfen" in the second line and the "f" in "Ehefrau" in the third line.
The next word is: ohnweit = unweit = not far from.
The last word is: alda = allda = (from) there.
You've captured the sense of this record in your translation.

Thank you @Robert Seal_1 ! I thought the word 'fiat' started either with an 'f' or an 's' but neither seems to work.
