From London, the lower part of the river flows through a shallow plain of sand and clay, with an average depth of 23 meters. The lower Thames flows through Delaware, Chatham, Thamesville, as well as Chippewa and Oneida First Nations settlements.

I find it hard to believe that the Thames has and average depth of 75.45ft. You must mean 2.3 meters.

The Lower Thames Conservation Authority says "depth is generally less than 23 metres", so for one thing I seem to have misunderstood it in the first place (it's not an average depth, I guess). But it must be 23 metres deep somewhere, then. Adam Bishop 00:18, 19 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I think having different articles about different rivers at Thames River and River Thames is confusing. The rivers (or at least the less well-known river) should be given proper disambiguation ( 21:25, 19 Sep 2003 (UTC)

This was originally River Thames, Ontario (unfortunately only the text was moved, so the history of that is still at the redirect, I think). It is also complicated by the fact that there is at least one other Thames River, in Connecticut. Adam Bishop 21:34, 19 Sep 2003 (UTC)
