Since Hartville is in Stark County but also on county line for Summit County, I would suggest you contact the Stark County District Library as well as the Akron-Summit Main Library, if you have actual full date. If you only have the month and year, Ancestry.com should have date in their database. If you are not a member, give me the full name and I will look it up for you.

Is there a library there that offers this type of assistance?
