Which ones do you remember the most? I was there in 1992 for the big three.

Three in less than 24 hours. I think they were 7.1 - 6.5 - 6.8. I was living just south of FResno when the Tehachapi hit in the dark of the night in July 52. I got to Eureka just in time for the 7+ in Dec 54 plus a few more over the years.

But to answer your question, the most violent one was a 5.8 just about under Eureka and very shallow. It dumped me out of bed about 6AM. It was a few years after the 92 swarm. My wife and daughter were out walking and they thought the world was ending because of all the transformers and wires arching.
