His Missouri Death certificate shows he was born in 1877 and age 33. His parents are listed as Nick Argiris and Helen Tasigiane or Tasigiano. His 1910 Census shows he was only 21 and born in 1889. Death certificate shows he was born in Domvrena, Greece, and that he was married. 1910 Census shows he was single. It also showed that he immigrated to this country in 1902. He worked for the railroad as a track improvement laborer. He was killed instantly on August 17, 1910, when he was struck by two trains passing on double rails.

The 1910 Census in Sioux City, Iowa shows there were two other Argiris men at the same address as Louis Argiris, possibly brothers. Bill, age 35, and Jim, age 25, and all three men had come to the U.S. in 1902. All worked for the railroad. Bill and Jim were listed as married but no wives were listed at that household. There is a city directory listing for a William Argeroes and an Angel Argiros for years 1910-1912, but not sure if they were related to Louis Argiris. I couldn't locate immigration records or a marriage record for any of these men.
