If your sister agrees to testify that was your father's intent, you may, but I am sure you know anything can happen in court. Why would your sister's daughter need to sign the deed? What did his Will say regarding the house?

If our house is solely in my husband's name, in the event of his death, will the house automatically go to me, his wife?

If title is solely in your husband's name title will not automatically transfer on his death. A probate must be opened. Title will transfer in accord with the terms of his Will. If there is no Will, then title will transfer in accord with the rules on descent and distribution. If there are children born to or adopted by your husband they will receive a ? interest in the home and the spouse will receive a ? interest. If there are no children then the spouse will receive the entire interest. The simplest way to receive the house directly upon the death of your husband, without opening a probate, is to transfer the house to you and your husband as joint tenants with rights of survivorship. Placing the house into a trust could also accomplish the transfer without probate.
