Yes, I know this. I am well aware that this feature is for iOS 8 only. I havent' updated any of the devices due to all the numerous problems with iOS 8. Rather I wanted to know for when we do get around to updating as I had mentioned in my message.

Well this isn't going to work for you then since you are on iOS 7. I don't know if other family members have to be on iOS 8 but I bet so since even joining family sharing wouldn't be possible under iOS 7 never mind setting it up in the first place.
