Ah so! The original link in your post for June was for August 15, or I read the one for August and posted it thinking it was for June. That's why I had them off Kamchatka and why I could make no sense of it. I'll delete those posts of mine. Thanks for the clarification.

The volcano on Unimak Island is likely: Shishaldin Volcano, 54.756, -163.968

USS Tuscarora, 23 January 1880, Anchored in La Union, San Salvador

https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorag ... 38-157.JPG
0100 Experienced a very heavy shock of an earthquake followed, in about a minute, by a lighter one. During the first shock a loud rumbling noise, not unlike that of distant thunder, was heard in the adjacent mountain. Before the shock the atmosphere was extremely sultry and the clouds were very heavy, resembling those seen just before a thunder storm. No change was noticeable in the water, but the shock caused the ship to tremble violently so that my first impression was that she had struck. The effect upon the natives was highly alarming, causing them to forsake their houses during the night, and their outcries could be heard distinctly on board the ship
