You need to see a lawyer. Look for "Legal Aid" in your state as they offer free or low-cost legal advice.
If someone is the "biological" father, he doesn't adopt the child, it is his child. He is legally obligated (in the USA) to provide support (money) for the child's needs. The only exception is if the mother was married to another man at the time of the birth, then legally the husband is considered the baby's father (even if everyone knows and admits that the other man is the baby's biological father).
If you're asking whether the biological father can be forced to take care of the child in his own house, the answer is "no" he can give up his parental rights to the child.
If you're asking whether the biological father can take the child away from the mother and her boyfriend/husband, the answer is "maybe" if he can PROVE to a court that the baby's mother is unfit and he (the biological father) is a better parent.
If the father WANTS to be involved in the baby's life even though the mother has a new boyfriend/husband, the father MUST be allowed to have visitation with his child. Not allowing him to see the child may cause the courts to consider the mother not fit to raise the child.
Again, GET LEGAL ADVICE from a lawyer.
You cannot adopt a child if the father still has legal rights over that child. The father would have to sign the child over to you. that is the only way you could adopt the child. marriage has nothing to do with it.
Yes, if a court terminates the biological father's parental rights on the grounds that he is an unfit parent, or the biological father fails to appear for hearings on the matter.
technically no
No, unless the biological father or the child himself requests it.
Yes. And, in some states the child can inherit from both the biological parent and the adoptive parent. See the article at the related link. for more information
Not without the permission of the child's biological mother. When a couple are not married and there is not a custodial order from the court, the law presumes that the mother has sole custody of the child in question.
no
Marriage by itself does not bring custody rights to non-biological children. Where the children go when the biological mother dies depends on who has custody, whether the non-biological father has adopted the child, whether the biological father wants the child, and on the laws of the state where all of this is happening.
no
Tell me the process of adopting a child not yours in a marriage. The biological father is deceased.
no, it requires the permission of the court.
Provided there's clear evidence of a proper service, than yes.
only with the permission of the court and the mother, AND provided the never is not now, nor later, collects AFDC.
Yes, by adopting the child.
With parental permission from both his parents, yes.
No, not unless the court grants the father custody.

You may not marry your cousin. However, there are no laws against marrying your father's cousin.
No. The person adopting a child does not have to be legally married. If that were the case, only married couples would be able to adopt.
Contact a family lawyer he should be able to tell you the process. I do know it would help if you married her first to show a stable family to the courts.
