Ohio Rev. Code § 317.15
When a deed or other instrument of writing for the sale, conveyance, or encumbrance of lands, tenements, or hereditaments, situated within this state, has been recorded in the official records of a county of the state, other than the county in which they are situated, whether or not the county in which the instrument is recorded ever comprised a part of the territory in which the lands, tenements, and hereditaments are situated, any person interested therein may procure, from the official records of the county in which the instrument is recorded, a certified copy of the record from the county recorder, with the seal of office affixed thereto, and cause it to be recorded in the county where such lands, tenements, or hereditaments lie, in the manner provided by section 5301.25 of the Revised Code. In making such a record, the certificate shall have the same validity and legal effect as the record of other deeds and instruments of writing.
