On 9 March, 1937, the largest recorded earthquake in Ohio occurred near the town. It was measured at 5.4 on the Richter scale, while damage was at intensity VIII according to the Mercalli intensity scale. [http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/states/events/1937_03_09.php] 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 Shelby County area has experienced at least 40 earthquakes since 1875.
