Once the family is disbanded and then set up under a new organizer, if the family is the same people, everyone should still have access to a family member's purchases for sharing.
If there are children under 13 years old, the new organizer needs to leave the existing family, set up the new family, and then the under 13 years old children can be transferred to the new family. Then disband the old family and join the new family.
