It doesn't really work like that because you would have never existed to know. You wouldn't be sad about it, and nor would anybody else. I don't mean to be insensitive.

Ownership of the hardcopy image does not include the copyright . For example if an artist sells a painting they retain copyright, the purchaser cannot use the image, for example on T-shirts or whatever. However, because the photos are so old they are likely to be in the public domain, so nobody owns the copyright. In Australia the copyright lasts 70 years past the death of the photographer (after they die belongs to their heirs).
