Re: unmarried custody
Generally, the "home state" of the child will have jurisdiction over custody issues, and that is determined by where the child has lived for the last six months.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
