Local History
Santa Barbara Morning Press, June 28, 1925

The day before the Santa Barbara earthquake on June 29, the headline in the local paper shouted the news about a series of strong earthquakes that shook the inhabitants of Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Washington State. Montana does experience frequent quakes, but still … hmmm.

BTW – I’ll be speaking about the earthquake at the SB Historical Museum on June 18, the Genealogy Society meeting on June 21, and at the SB Architecture Foundation on June 26.
