Documentation:
! Birth: estimated from Glazier and Filby, Germans to America, vol. 7, p. 136. This is a passenger list of the ship Elida from Hamburg to New York 22 May 1854, showing Johann Angelrodt, age 59, joiner, from Prussia, with wife Dorothea, same age, daughters Wilhelmina age 20, Dorothea age 25 and Henrietta age 17.
Independent sources confirm that Wilhelmina and Henrietta emigrated to the U.S. in 1854; however, Henrietta would have been age 19 in 1854, not 17. This is the only family of Angelroths or any similar spelling in this source in 1853, 54 or 55. Relationship to Henrietta Angelroth Lipke and Wilhelmine Angelroth Saiberlich not proven.

Story taken from notes by Delores Miller, Greenville, and Leona Mech.
Among settlers who came in 1852 were Peter Smith, F. Tharnagel, T. Mulaine. Dennis Long, E.R. Stone, Wakefield and John G. Jewett. John Schefe and family, Frederick Becker, and the Angelroths, Scotts, Barclays and McGregors were in Greenville in 1853. A.P. Lewis and his sister, who later became Mrs. E.S. Palmer, Hiram and Joseph Jack and their families came in 1854. Philo Root came to the county in 1854, but did not settle in Greenville until he had taught two winters in Medina. Michael Woods came, with his bride, in 1855. Hiram Jack built his cabin broadside to the Appleton town road. The Jacks were among the first settlers to keep sheep, a difficult thing to do because predatory animals had a fondness for mutton and lamb. The wool was needed for clothing and stockings, the women (there were nine daughters and one son in this family) spun the wool for clothing as well as for mittens and stockings.
This family (Johann & Dorothea and children) is not in the 1860 Outagamie Co. WI Census. 1870 census for Ellington Twp., Outagamie Co., WI p. 14-15 (7 Jun 1870), Stephensville P.O. : Sauberlich, Mena. age 37 [b. 1833] FW. Keeping house. b. Prussia. Parents of foreign birth. 1900 census, Grande Chute Township, Appleton City 5th Ward, has her emigration date as 1861, but interior evidence suggests an earlier date. Look for Johann and Dorothea in 1860 Census indexes to find place of settlement (probably WI). Social Security Death Index lists only 5 people surnamed Angelroth, all in WI.

This list covers only the eastern portion of the Grandduchy of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach, including only the Neustadt, Jena, Weimar and Allstet "Bezirke" (administrative districts) page 1. These names were abstracted from official notices required of legal emigrants.

About Ollendorf:
http://nice1.gr.jp/11_8-OH.htm
Ollendorf castle is situated between Erfurt, Thuringia's regional centre, and Weimar, the 1999 European town of culture.
Ollendorf was once an important settlement on the historical Via Regia, one of the most significant routes of commerce in the Middle Ages, and which linked Thuringia and Saxony to Eastern Europe. At the end of the seventeenth century, after the castle had been destroyed by a fire, the manor was built in a simple rural baroque style. Following the decline of the Via Regia in the 19th century, the site was chiefly used for agricultural purposes and store houses and barns were built. Then the manor fell into disrepair after having been abandoned for several decades.
