Le Cimetière Sud de Saint-Mandé. There's not a great deal of readily available information on Ulysse Robert, although he was born in Fournet-Blancheroche in Doubs to Swiss father and a mother from Franche-Comté. He published a number of works, amongst which are Recueil de lois, décrets, ordonnances, arrêtes, circulaires, etc. concernant les bibliothèques publiques, communales, universitaires, scolaires et populaire (1883), Un pape belge. Histoire du pape Etienne X (1992) and Notice historique sur Sant-Mandé (1901), and an apparently anonymous (possibly self-written?) 45-page portrait of him was published in 1904, a year after his death.
