Burial

Is his burial at Père-Lachaise beyond doubt? He's not in the cemetery lists on the web. Not those that I've found, anyway. Les woodland (talk) 16:54, 11 January 2009 (UTC)les woodland[reply]

Perhaps it should be caveated to say that it was sourced from ...'regarded as not a reliable source' i.e. French Wiki. And that more research is needed. It would be somewhat surprising if the Association Généalogique des Familles Vienne. A.G.F.V. - Document 2 : Une Course célèbre et légendaire… didn't know about Père-Lachaise...
