1937 earthquakes

On 9 March 1937, the largest recorded earthquake in Ohio occurred under the present day high school and middle school. It was measured at 5.4 on the Richter scale, while damage was at intensity VIII according to the Mercalli intensity scale.[1] The shock was felt as far away as Chicago, Illinois, and Toronto, Ontario. The shaking followed a similar but somewhat weaker event that happened a week earlier on 2 March of the same year. The Lutheran and Methodist Churches were heavily damaged and since then the Lutheran Church put metal braces in their attic to protect it from future earthquakes. The partially damaged school became a total loss for the town and they had to rebuild it. The town hall was so badly damaged that the upper story was condemned and has not been used since.The Shelby County area has experienced at least 40 earthquakes since 1875.[2]
