For example, if Mom has custody of a child, she dies and her will states that she wants her sister to receive custody, but Dad wants custody...Dad gets custody, unless he can be proved unfit, because Dad has first legal right to custody (Mom's wishes don't change that).
It is up to the parents to have the child baptized, assuming they have custody. It is their responsibility to bring them up in the faith.
