 Gosh, that is amazing and what a coincidence! Could we have been in Venezuela at the same time? I think that earthquake hit us in Valencia about 1991 or 92. I am not sure. Our ten foot high garden wall separated from our house. We had wall cracks too.

In 1812 there was an earthquake near Caracas that killed 26000 people, an enormous sum for those times in South America. I cannot find out for sure, but that may have been the same one that flattened Valencia, Maracay and Barquisimeto.
