The name Abruquah constitutes a household name of a highly religious Christian family hailing from the coastal town of Saltpond in the Central Region of Ghana in West Africa. Although Saltponders are Fantis, who are a part of the bigger Akan tribe,[1] the name ABRUQUAH is purported to have its origins from the Akyems who are thought to have migrated from the Eastern "Akyem" Region of Ghana to their present location at the coast, where they integrated well into the Fantis; hence, the other name of Saltpond, Akyemfo, meaning "peapole from Akyem". The name can therefore be found in the Eastern Region of Ghana but spelt differently as ABROKWAH, although these two may share the same ancestry.
