It depends on the laws of the State you reside in. In some cases, if a man has voluntarily assumed custody of a minor child who he thinks is his but then later discovered is not some courts have held that he can be made to pay child support. However, there are also instances where they have not. Look up the statutes in your state for more clarification.

Your mother should have pursued your father in court for child support when you were young.

If there was an order at some time your mother may be able to sue for arrears but that seems not to be the case.
