Subject headings for items in which Ohio is the main character will always begin with "ohio" and then are narrowed by the topic and then geographically and/or chronologically. However, you may also need to search by the topic and then narrow your search geographically to Ohio. Be careful to avoid items cataloged as fiction unless you are specifically looking for items of this nature.
Some examples
Ohio -- History -- Civil War, 1861-1865 -- Personal narratives
Women slaves -- Ohio -- Social conditions
