MARIGOT:--- The Collectivity of Saint Martin hereby informs the public that the Funeral Service is going into the last phase of the grave identification campaign within the various public cemeteries. The deadline is set for June 30th, 2026.
As part of the restructuring of our cemeteries and to better preserve our memory sites, a campaign to identify graves will resume. Remembering loved ones and identifying their tomb is essential to organizing our local cemeteries and preserving memorial sites.
This identification campaign has several objectives:
- Identifying anonymous and abandoned graves
- Informing and assisting families in identifying the graves of their deceased loved ones
- Creating a database to establish a public registry, allowing everyone to find information about the deceased and their graves.
- Identifying particularly old graves of historical interest and highlight public figures resting there.
During this last phase, the on-site identification sessions are scheduled only by appointment from Monday to Friday by contacting the funeral department of the Collectivité:
- by phone: 0590 87 50 04 extension 2004
- by email: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
The following documents enabling the identification process should also be presented:
- A copy of the death certificate and/or burial permit
- A copy of proof of identity of the person who will carry out the identification
All citizens are encouraged to collaborate with the Funeral Service on this identification campaign process, which will contribute to the enhancement of our shared heritage.
