““The rule as to the degree of proof necessary to overcome the presumption of legitimacy is stated in Re Davis’ Estate, 169 Okl. 133 , 36 P.2d 471 , as follows: ‘The presumption of legitimacy declared by section 1683, O.S. 1931, (10 Okl.St.Ann. § 3) can be disputed only by the husband or wife or the descendent of one or both of them. The testimony to overthrow such presumption must be strong, satisfactory, and conclusive evidence that the husband did not have access to the mother of the child when it was begotten, and must furnish clear proof to the contrary, disproving every reasonable possibility of such access.’ ””
