I've always liked this story... http://www.niagarafrontier.com/fallsstopped.html http://www.niagarafrontier.com/fallsstopped.html "A number of people made their way into the gorge to the riverbed. Here they saw articles that had been laying on the river's bottom and had been hidden for hundreds of years. Souvenirs picked up included bayonets, guns barrels, muskets, tomahawks and other artifacts of the War of 1812." (Even though 36 years isn't hundreds of years.)

Are you thinking of the War of 1912 instead? If not, then hundreds is kinda correct.

  No, the link in the post you replied to is about March 29th 1848 when a naturally occurring ice dam blocked the flow from Lake Erie into the Niagara River, which caused the falls to go dry. So in that case it had only been 38 years since the war of 1812.
