You did very well with your translation. The only thing I would note is the spelling of the first godparent's first name in the record is Kollomann - a very unusual name. Here's another thing to consider. The word Schuster can be translated as shoemaker, but may be better interpreted as a cobbler, i.e. one who repairs shoes rather than makes them from scratch.
