Death of Alphonse Cuvillier at 1AM on December the 30th 1880 in Essert (French part of Haut-Rhin department).
He was a railroad inspector (of the railroads in the East).
He was 43 years old and living in Essert together with his wife Anna Durwel, 41 years old. She was "sans état", which should translate as "without nationality", I think.
Alphonse was born in Réchésy (Haut-Rhin).
His parents: Xavier Cuvillier, 80 years & Madeleine Gigon, 74 years, both pensioners and living in Mulhouse (Alsace).

This is an extract from the Bulletin des lois and shows both Adolphe and Anna opting for French nationality and gives their dates of birth:

https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k3078444j/f8.item.r=cuvillier

I had to use Cuvillier in the search to get the right page for them both. It shows Anna as born in Bollwiller which has yoyo'd between being in France and Germany.

"Sans état " means no profession
