Typically, as long as your probation has no language specifically prohibiting this you can get married. Also, as you seem to be aware, if you are underage, you will need parental permission to marry.
According to Ohio law, persons aged 16-17 must have consent to marry from parents or legal guardians and may have to contact the Probate Court. Additionally, the Judge may require the minors to state that they have received marriage counseling that is satisfactory to the court. This law also mentions how the court will deal with a pregnant minor.
