Medical Malpractice

Looking for information on how to find details of WW1 deaths in Chicago in 1918?

My great grand uncle was shot in Chicago supposedly during a train robbery in 1918 during WW1. He later died in a Chicago hospital. He was an Army Officer and it is told that he was guarding the train. My family refers to him as Jack Kimble which was a nickname. His given name is A.E. Kimble, i believe first name Abraham. I have found information on the rest of my family such as his brother Nolen Kimble's draft registration card. As far as military records, he seems not to exist. I have 2 photos of him. He was born in Pendleton Co. Wv. He is burried in that area also. I believe that he taught other soldiers to shoot. He was born July 17, 1896 and died November 9,1918 while still serving. I cannot find anything at all on this person. Could someone please help?

1. I would suggest contacting the Veterans administration, or the Legion hall, in the area he was in. they may have MORE knowledge on this, and HOw to get access that we may not have.
2. Contact the Veteran Service Officer in your county, he probably has an office in the court house. It will help if you have his service number too.
