How to Change Children's Names if the Legal Father is Deceased
My question involves paternity law for the State of: PA. The father of my children are not on their birth certificates, he is also deceased. I am married now and would like to change the birth certificates and social security cards to my husbands name. Can I do that directly through the vital stats and amend/correct the birth certificate or do I have to go through the courts ?

At 19, you are free to petition a court in whatever state you reside in to change your name. Google "name change" and whatever your state name is and you'll almost certainly find links to show you how.
As long as you're not under current criminal investigation or trying to avoid debts, it's pretty straight forward.
