About Acquoy

Acquoy is a village. Location: West Betuwe, Gelderland. Population: 590. Elevation: 3 m.

From Wikipedia

Acquoy (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈɑkoːi]) is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is a part of the municipality of West Betuwe, and lies about 12 km (7 mi) east of Gorinchem. According to popular legend a "Jan van Arkel" was the first to have settled the village of Acquoy, when he returned from the crusades in 1133. However, this is highly unlikely, because there were no crusades in the period around 1133. The first crusade was from 1096–99 and the second one was from 1147-49.
