family heirlooms???

my amom recently passed away(my adad years ago)
I am the executor and it has fallen to me to go through the estate and figure out who gets what.

I find myself in a quandrie. I have come across things like : the family bible with the names and dates of births and deaths throughout the decades. other family heirlooms that are from aparents family from generations before.

one one hand i feel that i am just as entitled to these as anyone else because this is my family too.

on the other hand, i sometimes feel as though they should be owned by blood relatives.

anyone else ever deal with this? how did you deal with it?
