When father abandons unemployed wife and 3 children?
Go to the bank and withdraw as much cash as you can, drop the kids off with family/friends, and contact the police (they might not be a big help, but get the report anyway, this will be important later). Go to your local Women's shelter immediately after the bank and the police station, they can start the legal ball rolling (divorce precedings, child support, spousal support, helping you contact the proper people in order to protect you assets). People at the shelter will also help you with the new emotional baggage you and your family have. Keep in contact with friends and family (his too), they can provide a great support system. Finally, take steps to get security back in your life by getting a job, or if necessary first go back to school...remember the women's shelter can get you in contact with the necessary people to make this a reality.
Who is responsible for payroll deducted child support?
The employer is responsible for directing the payments to the correct place. However, if your employer fails to do so, it's likely that you will owe these payments. This is why every six months you should request a printout from child support enforcement, who also has a history of losing them. Some states have developed automatic notification system which you can sign up for.

You have asked a complex legal question. You should contact an attorney immediately who can review your situation and determine what your options are. There is a brief period during which claims can be made against the estate. The proceeds will be distributed once that period has passed. You should act quickly before the proceeds of the inheritance are distributed to your father. If you have proof of child support arrears you may well be able to attach and sieze the inheritance.
The State child support agency should be able to find him with that information.
What did it mean to swear a child and what resulted from this legal activity?
Briefly:
As early as the 1600s, children born out of wedlock were becoming a burden on England's parishes. Their mothers were required to identify the fathers so that they could pay to maintain the child just as they paid to maintain their legitimate families. Efforts were made to force single women to reveal the name of the father both before and after the birth. A licensed midwife would withhold her services until the mother had named the father of her child.
In Colonial America a child being born out of wedlock automatically resulted in a trial to determine who the father was and how the child would be supported. Most of the time the courts had to rely on testimony regarding the identity of the father.
Swearing a child was associated with an unmarried mother naming the father of her child so that he could be required to provide financial support.
