The citizenship registration of a child born in Akron starts with the U.S. birth certificate, issued in Ohio by Vital Statistics at the Ohio Department of Health, in Columbus, according to the CDC (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records).
The apostille goes on the certificate and on the translation, as the Ohio page explains.
In Summit County, where Akron is, marriage records are kept by the Summit County Probate Court (CDC, Where to Write for Vital Records), and for a new surname in a Ukrainian passport that certificate goes apostilled and translated.
