First off, if you haven't done so already, you should register at ISSR in the chance anyone is searching for you. You can find the ISRR website FAQs at the link below, as well as download the forms to register.

Also, you can register here as it is a pretty popular site.

Ohio has a state reunion registry, although there is very little information about it online. You can see their brief writeup here:

http://www.odh.ohio.gov/vitalstatistics/legalinfo/adoptreg.aspx

Ohio is a difficult state. There are a few Yahoo Ohio search groups but they don't appear to be very active. A good group that is nationwide is Soaring Angels, you could give them a try:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SoaringAngels/

And there's also Adoption Network Cleveland, although they do charge money :(

http://www.adoptionnetwork.org/content.asp?pageid=94

As far as which court to talk to, you definitely want the court where the adoption took place, which would be Cleveland

Good luck

The adoption lifeline. I gave my son up for adoption, and myself and his parents are aware that when he is old enough we will join.
