Cindy, I used to work in the Trumbull County Archives and still volunteer there once in a while.There are no "death or birth records" before 1867 anywhere in Ohio. They weren't required to be registered until 1867.Your only hope would be to write to the Archives requesting a look-up in the cemetery book and in the estate records. Tell them what you know and what you hope to find.
Trumbull Co Archives
118 High St NW

Copies are 10 cents a page.(I'd enclose a dollar and a SASE envelope.)If you get lucky and need more pages, they will bill you.Hope this helps!
