If you want a divorce, a divorce for someone informally married is the same as for one who is formally married.  Some people start by calling attorneys and consulting with a few attorneys to find out what the rights and options are.  If there are children, those children and provisions about their support, possession schedule, health and dental insurance as well as the rights and duties of each parent must be included in your final decree of divorce.  There are online resources if you intend to do it yourself.  One is Texaslawhelp.org, which has forms and instructions for do it yourselfers.  If you find you are unable to complete the forms, you should try to consult with an attorney who may review your decree and charge a modest fee for that.  If you and your spouse are unable to agree on the terms, then you will likely want to involve an attorney to represent you (only one of you) and to set a hearing to argue for your side of the disputed issues.

If you want to try to hold the proceeding down here in Texas, you need to see a lawyer ASAP. For now Texas still has jurisdiction over the child and the case. Good luck.

Start by asking him if he filed for and completed a divorce.  It is possible to do that without you knowing about it if he alleged he could not find you to serve you or told a lie or two to the court.  If he tells you he obtained a divorce, then ask where.  You could also go to the county in which the two of you last lived together and any other county in which he lived after he lived with you to see if there is a record of your divorce in the clerk's office for whatever court handles divorces in that county.  In Tarrant County, it is the District Clerk for the family law courts, for example.  They should be able to look up your divorce by name.  If they have it, then ask for a copy. If you come up empty then you may need to take care of getting divorced yourself.  Your husband is still married to you until he gets a divorce from you.  Once he gets the divorce, his subsequent marriage is considered valid.
