Experience I do have a reasonable knowledge of genealogy, being a member of the Society of Genealogist and of the Guild of One Name Studies.

Question I love my late husband family,but I remarried. I consider them my family. What I want to know are they legally my in laws.
Answer Hi Wanda,
Well, they would still be your in-laws in the UK and I suspect that the same will apply in the USA. This would come about due to the compliance with eclessiastical cannon that a woman cannot marry her husband's brother, even after he has died. (The rules on this have now been relaxed in many places).
Even if the married couple had been divorced there is still the ethical question regarding any children that they may have had. If the in-laws vanished then so presumably would all of the uncles, aunts and grand-parents.
I think that you can safely assume that the in-laws you acquired by your first marriage are still yours.
