Open Notification Center and scroll to look for older alerts that are still there. On the Lock Screen, swipe up from the middle of the screen; while using another screen, swipe down from the top-left corner. Apple says older notifications appear “if there are any,” so this is not an archive for alerts you have cleared or that are no longer present.

What if the notification was cleared?
Clearing an alert removes it from the current Notification Center view. That includes swiping left and choosing Clear or Clear All, or using the control to clear all notifications. Apple’s guide does not describe a way to restore cleared alerts, so Notification Center should not be treated as a notification history or recovery archive.
