Stepparents are not responsible for their stepchildren. You are not responsible for your husband's child(ren). However, to collect unpaid support, the State may place liens on real and personal property, including bank accounts, even though you are a joint owner.
In most states, a child born to a married couple is legally the child of both parents, even if the father is not the genetic father of the child. Some states have procedures to challenge that.

Unfortunately, you could probably get away with it. If a child is born inside marriage, even if it is not the husband's it is assumed it is the husbands. It will carry the husband's name and he will be responsible for all support and shelter of that child. Even if the couple ever divorce.
