Yes, he is illegitimate ("unehl.", which is abbreviation for "unehelich"), and his father is "supposed to be Johann from Übers Mohr". Note that there are a lot of moors or bogs in this area, so "Übers Mohr" may merely mean "other side of the moors".

Full translation: "Margreta Aberlings from Abheriche's illegitimate son Johann Henrich; the child's father is supposed to be Johann from Übers Mohr.

There were two Johan Heinrich's listed in the index.  One with a father and this one.  Unfortunately, the marriage record in the index is associated with this record.  It would appear they did not know the father's family name.  Looks like a brick wall in the building.   Thanks C-H !!  As always, great work.
