as a surname Roth is either a nickname for someone with red hair or from placenames meaning "piece of pulled up land" as in "pull up trees". In the surname Panderoth it is more likely the latter, thus toponymic from placenames.

There is a website with a "Namenlexikon" and a message board for queries, www.familie-greve.de, if you know German. Pantenroth isn't in the lexicon, but the boards might produce a reply.
