Thread Name: Ethics in archiving?
Subject: RE: Ethics in archiving?
Bob, if some or only one family member is opposed to the publication, then I think you would need to determine if they are entitled to object. Someone who is an executor of an estate would be in a position to say "yes." If the estate is completed, then perhaps simply finding a family member who is amenable. Not all estates last in perpetuity like Elvis'. If there are royalties, then you might have to go back to the original administrator.
