Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Ohio

Tenant and small claims court

I recently had a family memeber renting my property. She moved out with 30 day notice, but never paid for the last month of rent. We had a lease with rent amount due, addresses and names but no signatures, do I have any right still to take her to small claims court, or am I pretty much SOL??
