I have 2 children, ages 4 and 21 months, both by the same man. He and I were never married. He lives in Texas and is now married to someone else. The kids and I live in North Carolina. He has had no contact with our daughter (age 4) since January 2005, and has never had any contact with our son, who was born in December 2004. I want to change my children's last name from their father's, to mine. Does anyone know if this is possible without the consent of their father? I have no idea how to contact him and he has not paid any child support. (Support was finally ordered in July 2006, by default judgement, but the Texas AG cannot locate him due to him not having a job.) I appreciate any help you may be able to offer me.
