Is this UK or USA?
AnswerThey are living in US, Illinois. AnswerHi again :)I'm in the UK so cannot speak for US laws on this but I'm sure there will be as many US websites relating to Family Law as we have here, probably many more so given many differences in legislation between the states.
Speaking as a mother who has gone through separation (though luckily for our child the hostility was brief and we remain firm friends), I would not allow a child to go with the father if the father was deliberately withholding his address, this would be for a few reasons:
1. The inconsideration of the father over this issue would have me concerned that he would not honour any requests I made regarding the child's routine etc
2. I would, like any other parent, be concerned that the child was somewhere unknown.
3. Parents separate, children should be shown that they can still be considerate, still be friends, still trust each other, this should be a helpful lesson for them in their future relationships should they suiffer a break up.
In the UK we have a 'Residence Order' which is basically just a piece of paper rubber stamped by a Judge saying which parent has the child living with them full time, it's only real use is if the other parent goes walkabout with the child, the police here are more inclined to bring the child back if the resident parent has a residency order. It is in no way a preventative of abduction.
The question here really is not should the Father have to but more, why doesn't he want to?

How often is the father awarded custody of the child over the mother in North Carolina?
No, although most courts favor custody to the mother.
No, unless the baby's biological father relenquishes his parental rights, he would get custody of the child if the mother dies, not her husband. The biological father must sign his rights away to the mother's husband.

Either parent can have physical custody in a joint custody arrangement. If there is a court order granting the mother physical custody the father should notify the court of the mother's incarceration and have that order modified unless he wants the mother to resume physical custody when she is released.
