Steve,
Thanks for your help. I will consult the TVA reports. My project is
somewhat unique. I am attempting to confirm whether earthquakes were being
felt in Alabama prior to the visit of the Shawnee leader Tecumseh to the region
region in September and October of 1811. Tecumseh supposedly threatened to
stamp his foot and make the ground shake during this visit.
If, however, the quakes were already being felt, then the legend probably
doesn't hold much water.
Thanks again, Dale
