2/JG 76 109 down during the French Campaign

I'm trying to research the identity of a Bf109E from 2./JG 76, Black 7, that reportedly crash landed near "Weiler bei Markirch," probably in May of 1940. Would this be the small village of Weiler, Luxembourg, and is that near a Markirch? Can anyone shed any light on this specific location, and have any more info on the identity of this aircraft, which appears to have come down intact? Photos of this aircraft appear in Prien's JFV Vol 3, pges 376-7.

Thanx
