Stabale is a name that was brought to England by the ancestors of the Stabale family when they migrated to the region after the Norman Conquest in 1066. The Stabale family lived in Somerset. Their name, however, is a reference to Estaples, Normandy. Etaples is a small seaport on the French coast about 10 miles from Boulogne. Alternatively, the name could have been an occupational name for someone who works in a stable, or someone who lives near a stable. 1 Early Origins of the Stabale familyThe surname Stabale was first found in Somerset where one of the first records of the family was Robert del Estable who was listed there in the Assize Rolls of 1270.

For such families, the shores of Ireland, Australia, and the New World beckoned. They left their homeland at great expense in ships that were overcrowded and full of disease. Many arrived after the long voyage sick, starving, and without a penny. But even those were greeted with greater opportunity than they could have experienced back home. Numerous English settlers who arrived in the United States and Canada at this time went on to make important contributions to the developing cultures of those countries.
