You are considered the legal descendant, for purposes of inheritance, of the parent who is listed on your birth certificate. However, someone supplied false information at the time of the recording of the birth and that issue may come up in the future. A court order could change the situation but until that time the birth certificate would control.
No the stepfather can not go after the real father.
If your wife was adopted by her stepfather, he would be your (adoptive) father-in-law. Otherwise, he is your stepfather-in-law, and only her biological father is your father-in-law. Also, if you have children, he will be their step-grandfather.
If the birth father has paid no support and has had no contact with the child for one year, the stepfather may adopt in most states without permission of the birth father. However, this is still a legal process that requires a lawyer and court documents. The price can still range from $500 to $2000. In PA you can't put a father on the birth certificate at birth unless he signs for it and fills out a admission of paternity (if mother is unwed). If he is not listed on the birth certificate he has no legal rights and you don't have to ask him for anything. Especially if he cannot prove he was there or active. And if you went to domestic relations for paternity/support and he didn't show or pay it's an admission and most likely be seen as "turning over" his rights.
I'm I descendant of an Irish person. Or, longer: I'm a descendant of my father, and his father too. Is that ok? :-)
Moses did not have a "stepfather-in-law" since his wife, Zipporah, never had a stepfather. Moses' father-in-law was Jethro.
they should because the stepfather is the dad not the bio father
Yes, Noah is traditionally considered a descendant of Seth according to the Bible. In the genealogy in the Book of Genesis, Noah is described as a descendant of Seth through his father Lamech.
Yes, it is illegal to knowingly sign a birth certificate claiming to be the father when you are not the biological father. This act is considered fraud and can have legal consequences.
If your brother-in-law is your spouse's brother, then his father is your father-in-law. If you brother-in-law is your sister's husband, then his father is not your father-in-law, and is not related to you in any way..
Birth father

No, he was not. But his father was semi-adopted by his stepfather.
