Hi Todd. Here is a partial list of earthquakes in the immediate Bay Area. Year Mo Dy Ho Mn Latitude Longitude Magnitude Fault
1836 6 10 15 30 37.80 -122.20 6.75 Hayward
1838 6 ? ? ? 37.60 -122.40 7.00 San Andreas
1865 10 8 20 46 37.00 -122.00 6.50 San Andreas
1868 10 21 15 53 37.70 -122.10 7.00 Hayward
1892 4 19 10 50 38.40 -122.00 6.50
1898 3 3 7 43 38.20 -122.40 6.50
1906 4 18 13 12 37.70 -122.50 8.25 San Andreas
1911 7 1 22 0 37.25 -121.75 6.50 Calaveras
1989 10 18 0 4 37.04 -121.88 7.10 San Andreas
Not 100% sure about this but I think the 1892 4 19 quake was the one at Vacaville and the one on 1898 3 3 was at Mare Island. I don’t know why those two were included in the list unless they had a significant impact upon the Bay Area. I can see where the Mare Island would, but not sure about the Vacaville one. The link shows most of the quakes in the Bay Area, but not the locations. Take Care…Don in creepy town
