Is a father listed on this baptismal record?

Is there anything that indicates in this record whether the woman was married or not? I cannot quite read the last line which looks like "Vater des kindes ist dass Schaef? son Christian Hafs". Is that the father of Peter?

Second entry down: 1692 14 Nov. Sat. Anna Kleinschmidt ? ? young son is born, named Peter. Witnesses include Jochim Gutknecht, the mayor Gregor Schwartz, Peter Schwartz, Regin Schwartz, Erin and Father ? ? is a the shepherd's son and ? Christian Hafs.

Thank you for your help.

Hello Christina,

The child is illegitimate and the father is Christian Hass, a shepherd's son

Here's my translation of the record which you can compare with yours:

In the year 1692, on the 14th of November Anna Kleinschmidt gave birth to an illegitimate [or spurious] young son, so was called Peter. Godparents were Jochim Guthknecht, mayor, Gregor Schwartz, Peter Schwartz, Regin Schwartz, Trin _____?. The father of this child is the shepherd's son and is called Christian Hass.

Comments: The third word in the second line is: unechten (not quite sure of the last two letters); "unecht" means (among other things): illegitimate or spurious.

"Trin" is a shortened version of "Katharina". I can't decipher Trin's surname which is written below "Trin".

You're welcome, Christina.

Thank you so much. By the way, one one record you helped me with in the past had a unique name, Benignam, and you said it meant gentle. What is the name book you recommend for German genealogy?
