I'm not sure that he did own land in Ohio, but it looks like he owned land on the Ohio River. I found a copy of the will of George Washington online. Here is the link to the schedule of property: http://gwpapers.virginia.edu/documents/will/property.html

Ohio wasn't officially made a state until 1803. Washington died in 1799. I think the land he owned was in Virginia.
Washington's land along the Ohio river and it's tributary, the Kanhawa, were in what is now West Virginia.
