Unclaimed Funds in Hamilton County Exceed $50 Million

Ok, I have looked up my name and my great grand-mother has her name listed twice. I have researched this and to get together all the documentation that I am in fact related to her is not worth the amount of money that is in the account. I know this because I have confirmed that it is in fact under $100. If the amount was higher I would consider going further in the project.

Perhaps you'll have more luck.

There are 266,373 unclaimed accounts owed to Hamilton Countians, reaching a grand total of $58,950,095.82.

The Ohio Commerce Department's Division of Unclaimed Funds requested that Hamilton County Treasurer Robert A. Goering assist in tracing the unclaimed funds to the rightful owners. Seven sets of Unclaimed Funds Books containing the names and addresses of the Hamilton Countians who are owed money will be kept for reference in the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County. One set will be permanently housed in the Information and Reference Department (located in the former Government and Business Department) on the second floor of the Main Library's South Building. There will also be a set at the Anderson, Green Township, and Symmes Township branch libraries. The remaining three sets will circulate at branch libraries for one week at a time.

Each branch location as well as the Main Library's Information and Reference Department currently provide unclaimed funds forms. A searchable list of unclaimed funds and instructions on the application process are available online at http://www.hamilton-co.org/treasurer/uncfnds.asp. For more information or to obtain necessary forms and instructions, call the Division of Unclaimed Funds' toll free number at 1-877-644-6832.
