Ohio currently has no active Volcanos but did go through intense activity in Precambrian Period. There is almost 0 chance of any volcanic activity in the state of Ohio as it has not seen any activity for 15,000 years or more. It is also a fallacy to claim that volcanos are only found on plate boundaries. This is a misconception, Volcanos can be found in weak spots in the middle of plates as well, or any weak spot for that matter. (This is generally a thinner spot in the earths crust) There is a few dormant volcanos in the USA, one is in Georgia and is called Pigeon Mountain.

No, there are no real volcanoes in Ohio. In order for there to be a volcano, a place must be on or near the edge of a tectonic plate. Ohio is pretty far away from any of those edges.
