First of all the private parently test that you took will not be allowed for use in the court. The court would make you take another one and although that may result in you being the father,that will not give you alot of rights. The promblem is the mother being married and having another name put on the childs birth certificate meands that there is another man that has claim to the child. The court could allow you to change the childs last name and you would have to go to court and ask the court in order to do that and if that can be done then you have the door open to file for custody and yes you being the father would override the grandparents rights. I would consult an attorney and get this done legally.

Parenity and custody of child out of wedlock
I live in kentucky and a girl has arrived at my doorstep and proclaimed me to be the father of her child in an affair that occured one night years ago. The child in question is almost 3 now. We did a private paternity test and it proved that i was the father. The complex part of this is, another guy signed the birth certificate and the child even has his last name, it wasnt until he was proven not to be, and three other guys, that she sought me out. THe child still goes with him and his parents every other weekend. She is not taking care of the child, nor does it even live with her, the child lives with her parents. She does not live there because of domestic problems with her father in which the police have been involved. They all live in goverment housing and recieve goverment assistant. And i am almost certaint that she could not pass a drug test. She is wanting me to support her and claiming to go the state office and file for the max amount of child support if i do not give her money for child that does not live with her, her mother has pleeded with me to not give her money. Could i obtain full custody of the child since she is my daughter and not living with the biological mother? Dont I have more rights than the grandmother since i am the father? I have a home and a stable job, I am married and have other children. I do not know what to do. Could i prove her unfit?

You bet you can prove her unfit and you should if you love your daughter. She is carrying your DNA and you do have rights. I don't know legally about your state but my state does not recognize grandparents rights they have no say so and I know she can not make you pay child support if she does not have the child and because you are not on the birth certificate. Actually as messed up as it is she would have better luck legally going after the guy on the birthcertificate because he is actually her legal father and he signed it making him responsible for that child. You need to tell you she can threathen you all she wants but you are not giving her any money and take her to court and get custody of you child!
