Finnish Baptism Translation Assistance
Hello again. I'm hoping the wonderful folks in this group might help me again with translating this baptismal record. The record is for Johannes, born 28 July 1871 in Alavus, son of Albertina Antintytar Talvitie. I'm hoping the first line identifies the father?
Thank you very much!

Sorry, but the first line simply identifies the mother's position and residence-no mention of who the father is. The record reads:
Alavudenk(ylä) ittellis(?) Ansioniemen mualla Albertina Antint(ytä)r Talvitien jalka lapsi
Johannes
K(ummi)t: Torp(pari) Matti Talvitie v: Maria, Torp(pari) Elias Huippula (?) ja Torp(pari)t(ytä)r Kreta Kuusisto.
That translates as:
The village of Alavus tenant farmer (?) (who lives around or at) Ansioniemi, Albertina Antintytär Talvitie's illegitimate child
Johannes
Sponsors/Godparents: Cottager Matti Talvitie (and) wife Maria, cottager Elias Huippula (?) and cottager daughter Kreta Kuusisto.
This birth/christening record also gives the page number in the household records where the mother can be found (p. 801). There she is Albertina Andersdotter Talvitie (Andersdotter is the Swedish equivalent of Antintytär): https://www.sukuhistoria.fi/sshy/sivut/jasenille/paikat.php?bid=7927&pnum=789
