  1. NICE: 06000.

    3 cemeteries with 1,000 graves. The Jewish Cemetery in Nice is located in Allee Aragon, next to a Catholic cemetery. The cemetery is situated near a ruined chateau on the summit of a bluff between the port and the old city. At the end of the Quai des Etas Unis are lifts and stairs to the summit. From there, the pleasant walk along Allee Prof. Benoit, beneath leafy trees, reveals wonderful views of the city of Nice below. The cemetery is walled, with a simple entrance and bears the inscription: "Cemetiere Israelite." On two terraces, the upper one with room for expansion is reached by a flight of concrete stairs and contains a few new graves. The lower terrace, somewhat higgledy-piggledy, has no indication of rows. There is a center path, but access to most of the graves entails walking across them, as there are few gaps. There is no office. The cemetery seems to have adopted the practice of multiple burials in the same plot, which is not common among Ashkenazi Jews but may be Sephardic. Probably no more than 200 graves sit in this very tranquil setting. Source: Basil Samuels, London, England, BasilindaSamuels@compuserve.com

    It's a start and if not one of these, they may be able to help you.  

    I would try to contact the City Hall in Nice and give the name of the deceased. That may be faster.

    Like any admistrative office in France calling may be frustrating. If no one helps you try sending an email to the mayor himself!
