William Garlick death 1935 Nice, France

[Jazgran]

I have recently discovered that a member of my family died in 1935 in Nice, France.   He was living in UK until 1928.   Are there any records of him living in Nice from 1928 until his death in 1935.  Would there be any information on what became of his French assets?

Have you checked if he left a will in England or if administration was granted in England?

EDIT

He died 8.9.1934 & administration was granted to Grace Murray Slade wife of Ronald Slade effects £56.11s.6d

If you are searching the probate site it will return a nil search if you look for Garlick so just input Gar & scroll through untill you come to the pages with Garlick - you need to scroll through about 6 pages as the new HMCTS website doesn't seem to recognise alphabetical order

Thank you for your response.   Yes, there is a probate in England which I have seen.   I think the amount was so small it possibly only related to assets in England.  My enquiry is whether he had any assets in France which would have been dealt with by the French system.

Too recent a death to have anything online for France.... Have checked just in case, but found nothing.

Joger.   Thank you so much for this information, I do appreciate your help.
I am unable to read it all and my French is very limited but I guess it is a death notice for William.   Does it mention any assets he may have, eg a house?
Does it say where he was buried or ashes scattered.    Or mention any other names.

Well done joger!

You'll need to type 134 in the box and then press aller à la page next to it.

I won't be able to look at it till tomorrow evening, but if no one else has translated it by then, then I'll have a go for you…

Date of death = 8 September 1934

Does mention that he is the widower of Annie Jackson

That's why I translated the important infos in my post above the picture which is a photo of William's "acte de décès " ( death certificate).

the birth certificate says that William lived here ( owner or tenant is never mentionned in a death certificate)
