I know in Montana that if there is another party to adopt the child, that the mother has to contact the biological father in several ways even if he is not listed on the BC. Either by newspaper in the law section, or written letter. And if the father does not respond, then it means you have giving up your parental rights, and the child is able to be adopted.

Does The father Have rights if his name Is not on the certificate?
No. By signing the certificate he says he is the father of the child. If he then wants visitation rights or custody he have to petition in court after he has established paternity by a DNA test. He can then also pay child support.

Does the father have rights to a child in Oklahoma?
If married they have equal rights to the child. If not married the father have right to sign the birth certificate and prove paternity in court so he can petition for visitation, custody and also pay child support. So he have to go to court to get his rights while the mother does not since there are witnesses she is the mother. So yes, a father def have rights to his child. If the mother or another man sign the birth certificate he can go to court and change it providing a DNA test for proving paternity.

When a child is incarcerated does the maternal grandmother have more rights to the children than the paternal grandfather if the father is not on the birth certificate?
You don't say which of the parents that are incarcerated but their rights to the child comes first. If the father is not in the birth certificate and he has not established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, there is nothing that legally says he is the father. Then the maternal grandmother would have a better chance. If the father is not in the birth certificate but he has established paternity to the court so he can petition for visitation or custody and also pay child support, the chance should be equal.
