No the New Madrid Earthquake just rang the liberty bell. The earthquake's epicenter was in the boot heel of Missouri, but the earthquake was so strong that it was felt as far away as New York, Canada, and Washington D.C.

The strongest earthquake recorded in the New Madrid Seismic Zone was a series of three earthquakes in 1811-1812 with estimated magnitudes of 7.5-7.9. These earthquakes were among the largest ever recorded in the central United States and caused widespread damage across the region.

The 1812 earthquake, known as the New Madrid earthquake, occurred in the central United States near the town of New Madrid, Missouri. It is considered one of the largest earthquakes to ever hit North America.
The "New Madrid" fault line runs through it.
No because the New Madrid quakes occurred far inland, so therefore no tsunami was generated by the plate tectonics under a large body of water as is the mechanism for most earthquake-generated tsunamis. However, the New Madrid fault earthquake did cause the Mississippi river to flow backwards.
it was about 8.0.
