I'm not sure of the exact years, I think it is something like 1908-1953, but you can order copies of Ohio death certificates from the Akron Public Library. You can place a maximum of two requests per month, but each request can be for 1-5 death certificates. They ask for as much info as you have for the person (ie., death date, county of death, certificate number), then they will send you the certificates and an invoice. Their charge is $1 for processing and 5 cents each for the copies. So, for 5 death certificates, your charge is only $1.25. You can't beat that!!! Requests can be emailed to speccollections@akronlibrary.org. It normally takes 3-5 weeks to get your death certificates in the mail.
