The site listed below is called History of the English Language. It has some of the French words and some interesting facts on how the English language developed over the centuries.

It took some fancy searching and twisted keywords, but I found something that might help you out... The study of word origins is etymology, so if you need to hunt up more stuff like this, use it as a keyword.
Have fun!
