Edited for internet presentation in 1998 by Donald D. Young

Section 3705.20 of the Ohio Revised Code provides that "whoever claims to have been born in this state, and whose registration of birth is not recorded, or has been lost or destroyed, or has not been properly and accurately recorded, may file an application for registratiion of his birth, or correction of his birth record, in the probate court of the county of his birth, the county of his residence, or the county in which his mother resided at the time of his birth....An application to correct a birth record shall set forth all of the available facts required on a certificate of birth and the reasons for making said application, and shall be verified by the applicant....Said application shall be supported by the affidavit of the physician in attendance; if such affidavit is not available the application shall be supported by the affidavits of at least two persons having knowledge of the facts stated therein, or by documentary evidence, or such other evidence as the court deems sufficient."

A birth date is not shown for those individuals who would presently be less than eighty years of age, and all records not listing the name of a father have been removed. This information has been assembled entirely from public records and is intended for use only in family history research. Before making copies, read the copyright notice at the end.
