The Norwood City Health Department assists the Ohio

Facts |

|
|
The Norwood City Health Department houses copies of birth and death
certificates dating from 1908 to the present for those persons who
were born or died within the Norwood city limits. Our Registrar, Jean
Tepe Tolbert, maintains those
records and will assist you in finding documents either housed at our
facility or provide information as to where your vital documents can
be found.
The Norwood City Health Department issues vital records according to
the laws and rules of the Ohio Revised and Administrative Codes. All
requests for vital records must be made in writing either at our facility or by mail. All vital
records must be certified by the local registrar. We are not
permitted to issue uncertified copies for genealogy research but are
happy to assist you in reviewing our records on site. Contact us at
(513) 458-4600 for an appointment if you are planning a genealogy
research visit. |

| Cost |
 |
Certified copies of both birth and death certificates at the Norwood
City Health Department are $22 each. This cost includes fees that we
are required by law to collect on behalf of other agencies ($1.50 for
Family Violence Prevention; $3.00 for Child Abuse Prevention; $5.00
for the Ohio Department of Health). The Norwood City Health
Department retains only $7.50 of the cost to maintain records,
purchase vital statistics paper and supplies and issue records.
Each local health district sets their fees for vital records storage
and maintenance.
Prior to burial or cremation, funeral directors are required by law to
obtain burial permits. The cost of burial permits is currently $3.00
and is forwarded to the Ohio Department of Health less a 3%
administration fee.
Payment for vital records at the Norwood City Health Department must
be made by check, cash or money order. We plan to offer payment by
credit card in the near future.
