Yes, family history is considered IC knowledge.

I agree with your intent, but he specifically notes "in the family history". Isn't that information only available via user info page or to yourself upon logging in? Unless you have two characters in the same realm, that info isn't going to do you much good.

The only information being reported to where it can be immediately used is that the victim has died (and how).
The OP stated that he desired the name of the assassin to be added to the victim's family history, and the name of the victim to be added to the assassin's family history: "b) your character's death would be writen in your family history along with the killer's name/ also your character's name would writen in the family history of the killer"

There are many cases where the name of the assassin is never discovered, or the wrong person is blamed. How would anyone know who really did it? And if you were never identified, how would anyone know to blame you, so as to record it in your family history? Adding it to family history would be a horribly meta-gamey piece of information. It would be much better to simply tag the victim's history with "Slain by an unknown assassin".
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.
