This site has all information on Aussie Earthquakes
http://www.ga.gov.au/bin/listQuakes - they are the most recent
Their main page is http://www.ga.gov.au
They will have info on all earthquakes ... just might be a wee bit of searching on the site for you

Honey have you tried Googling it? Or ringing the council? What is it for? Your question is unclear. If its for stories etc, just look at what places were affected (eg- the Kent Hotel) and go from there to find the people there at the time. Also have you rung the council? They are usually very helpful. Just do some searches.

If you live in Sydney, go to the State Library and look at the newspapers of the time. You should find all the stories you want there. There are times when libraries are better than the internet and this could be one of them.
