Argos Reflector, 7 May 1896
Death of Thos L. Voreis - The death of Thomas L. Voreis occurred at his home 
four miles west of Argos, Sunday evening, May 3rd.  He had been failing in 
health for more than a year, and spent the winter of '95 in Florida, hoping 
that the change would prove beneficial.  He returned no better, and continued 
to fail until after much suffering, he finally passed away.  Thomas L. Voreis 
was born in this county February 2, 1848, being the son of James Voreis, one 
of the county's early settlers.  He was reared and educated on a farm, and 
remained with his parents until his twenty first year, when he began life upon 
his own responsibility.  March 7, 1869 he married Harriet S, daughter of Aden 
and Elizabeth Clevenger, who has born him the following children, Howard F., 
Nora M., and James A. (deceased).  After his wife's death Mr. Voreis was for 
some time unsettled, traveling from place to place, principally in the West.  
Later he returned to his home, and on the 26th of June 1879, he was united in 
marriage to Mrs. Hattie DeLine, daughter of Henry and Hannah Warnes.  Since 
his second marriage Mr. Voreis has continued on his farm in Green township, 
and was one of the thrifty farmers of that part of the county.  He was a 
Democrat in politics, and as such was elected trustee in 1890.  In addition to 
this position he was for four years Deputy Sheriff of Marshall county, during 
which time he resided in Plymouth.  Fraternally he was a member of Plymouth 
Lodge, No. 139, F. & A.M.  The funeral was conducted at the house by Elder 
Wagoner, Tuesday morning; interment at Maple Grove Cemetery.
