Angelbeck, Henry, now living retired in Plainview after an active agricultural career in Highland Township, was born in Germany, where he grew to manhood. Like other German youths, he was obliged to serve in the army, and took part in the Franco-German war of 1870. In 1872 he came to the United States, first locating in Cincinnati, where he remained for a year. Then coming to Wabasha County, Minnesota, he bought and settled on 160 acres of land in Glasgow Township. The tract was wild and largely covered with timber, which he cleared off, first building a small log house. In 1897 he moved to Highland Township, buying 175 acres in sections 4 and 9. On this farm in 1897 he built a new frame house of nine room; a barn 30 by 68 feet, and a granary 30 by 34, with a lean-to 14 by 34. Here he farmed successfully until 1909, in which year he retired and removed to Plainview. Henry Angelbeck married Louise Evers, who, like himself, was born in Germany. They have had a family of six children, of whom four are now living: Mary, wife of Frank Deming, Jr.; Lizzie, wife of George Passe of Merrifield, Minn.; and Theresa, wife of William Passe of the same place. (son John J. is not listed) Those deceased are Henry and Anna. Mr. Angelbeck was formaly supervisor in Glasgow Township. In religion he and his wife are Catholics, and are people well known and highly esteemed.
(The biography refers to six children, but only lists five, omitting John J. It is interesting that three of the girls married three Passe siblings.)
