You need to disband the existing family using the steps in the article below. You can then be the organizer to set up the new family and invite the family members to join the new family. If there are children under 13 years old, set yourself up as the new organizer, and then the under 13 years old children can be transferred to the new family. Then disband the old family.


Family Sharing -  Transfer a child to a different family group - Apple Support?        


Family Sharing - Leave.          


If necessary, contact Apple ID Support. See the Apple Support articles below for contact information.
