Yes. In 1811-1812, three giant earthquakes, presently estimated at over 8 on the Richter scale, struck ... the epicenters of the earthquakes were actually in Missouri, which is fairly distant, but the earthquakes were so powerful that even in Alabama, significant damage occurred. Significant earthquakes within Alabama itself are known to have occurred in 1886, 1916, 1957, 1959, 1975, 1986, 1989, 1997, 1999, and 2003.
