By petitioning the family court of jurisdiction over the child for guardianship, wait for your hearing and be prepared to present a compelling case why it would be in the best interests of the child to live with you.

Who gets custody of a child when the married mother dies and biological father does not have rights?

Only if she did not have parental rights when the man dies. Otherwise she automatically gets custody unlesss she is unfit. It is assumed the couple was not married. In the United States an unmarried biological mother already has legal custody of her child unless her parental rights have been affected by a court order. If the child was living with the father, his family may petition for custody and in that case the mother should contact an attorney who specializes in custody issues or visit the family court and ask to speak with an advocate.

Can the non custodial parent object to the child's religious upbringing?

well, if you dont have custody, i'd say no. If the child has a god-father or god-mother, it is THEIR duty to ensure that the child is raised in the religeon that they were in. And odds are, if the non-custodial parent is raising the kid, the kid has already been traumatized by not being with their real parents, if they knew them or not. Its best to leave things as it is, but it all depends on the religeon, of course.
