Pronunciation?

Could someone add the correct pronunciation? Was it Bai or Bee? Benjamin Trovato (talk) 03:42, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Marriage to Marthe Queenstone after death?

This addition from 01:37, 19 February 2015 (Icupupa) to the Family section: "he later remarried to Marthe Queenstone in 1852, as a reoccurring helping hand, they decided to marry. They stayed married until by's death."

University of Ottawa engineering building

As of the current edit, this page states that the uOttawa engineering building, Colonel By Hall (aka CBY) was unveiled in 2005. Per the uOttawa page about the building, the building was inaugurated in 1970.

The 2005 date precedes my time at uOttawa; could this possibly refer to a renaming of the building, or (more likely) the unveiling of a plaque with the mentioned text?
