I need your help (a priori) on luxembourg!
Bonjour
I cannot find the marriage of a couple which would have taken place between 1852 and 1863.
Him: EIF(F)ES - EUVES Nicolas baptized on July 6, 1832 in Weilscheid (Luxembourg)
Son of Joannes and WANTZ Magdalena.
Her: HEBER(T) - WEBER Margaretha.
Some small additional information: Nicolas EIFES lived in Ettelbrück (Luxembourg) in 1863, then Metz in 1870 where he died on May 30, 1886 (special mention for @Charlotte Noelle Champenois 😊) who was kind enough to translate the death certificate written in German)
I'm looking for the marriage certificate to get genealogical information about her.
Best regards - Paul-Marc

The marriage was recorded in Etterlbruck on 27 November 1862 under #28. See https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-XH17-NBL?i=460&wc=9RY7-PTL%3A129625001%2C129929201&cc=1709358

They are listed in the 1862 marriage index on the same film as their daughter Catherine's birth, and their marriage record is on images 461-462 of FHL microfilm #4379262 (linked). The record states:
On 27 November 1862 at 10 a.m. came before us, Johann Peter Schmit, mayor and civil official of the community of Ettelbruck, canton Diekirch, in the grand duchy of Luxemburg, Nicolas Eifes, servant boy, age 30, born in Welscheid, in the community of Bourscheid, on 5 July 1832, resident of Ettelbruck multiple years already, grown son of the here present and to the marriage of their son agreeable parents Peter Eifes, age 58, and Anna Maria Draudt, age 58, a married couple and day laborers resident in Welscheid, and Margaretha Heber, servant girl, age 24, born in Gilsdorf, in the community of Bettendorf, on 14 Feb 1838, resident of Ettelbruck multiple years already, grown daughter of the here present and to the marriage of their daughter agreeable parents Ivan Nicolas Heber, farrier (hoof smith), age 55, and Barbara Prommenschenkel, no occupation, age 53, a married couple residing in the above-mentioned Gilsdorf.
The proclamations were made in their community on the Sundays 16 and 23 November. As no objections were raised, Nicolas Eifes and Margarethe Heber were married.
Witnesses: Ivan Mausen, servant boy, age 23, resident of Scheidel, cousin of the bridegroom; Nicolas Wiltes, farmer, age 37, resident of Ettelbruck, not related; Paul Badé, day laborer, age 56, resident of Ettelbruck, not related; and Théodore Eifes, day laborer, age 26, resident of Baurnheid, brother of the bridegroom. They and we signed the document, but both of the mothers declared that they could not write.

Bonjour @Baerbel Baerbel et @Charlotte Noelle Champenois
You are too strong ... thank you, thank you, thank you! 😍
Fortunately, I did well not to write that I had looked for Ettelbruck.
Like what you can read a register 10 times and find nothing.
By passing the hand it immediately gets better.
Thank you, it makes me happy, really !!!
Best regards - Paul-Marc
