Étaples or Étaples-sur-Mer ([etapl]; Dutch: Stapel) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in northern France. It is a fishing and leisure port on the Canche river.
Étaples takes its name from having been a medieval staple port (stapal in Old Dutch), from which word the Old French word Estaples derives. As a port it was part of the administrative and economic complex centred on Montreuil after access from the sea to that town was restricted by silting.[Wikipedia]She married Bourgon Broucard probably in Manheim, Baden, Germany on the 2nd day of December in 1666 where their first three children were born. Seven more children were born in New York.
