BREAKING – MOST SIGNIFICANT EARTHQUAKE IN WEST MICHIGAN IN MANY DECADES…upgraded to magnitude 4.2. The earthquake has been felt in five states. Headline on Drudge. Centered 8 km south of Galesburg, Michigan. Largest e-quake in Michigan history was magnitude 4.6 in 1947. This may be the strongest centered in Southern Michigan since the ’47 quake.

The earliest record of earthquake tremors felt in Michigan Territory (statehood came in 1837) were from the great series of shocks centered near New Madrid, Missouri in 1811 and 1812. As many as nine tremors from the New Madrid earthquake series were reported felt distinctly at Detroit.

Between 1872 and 1883 a number of moderate earthquakes were centered within Michigan. On February 6, 1872, three shocks lasting 30 seconds were reported at Wenona. No additional information is known about these tremors. Reports from Redford and Greenfield Village, not far from Detroit, indicated a minor earthquake occurred on August 17, 1877. It was noted that horses were frightened during this shock. Some persons reported hearing a noise like a train. On February 4, 1883, an earthquake cracked windows and shook buildings at Kalamazoo (intensity VI). This shock was felt in southern Michigan and northern Indiana. Cities as distant as Bloomington, Illinois and St. Louis, Missouri also reported feeling this earthquake.
