Dr. Connelly was born into a family of physicians on Sept. 8, 1917, in Paintsville, a son of Ethel Williams Connelly of Ashland and the late Dr. Edward Buck Connelly. During an interview last year with The Independent, he said he was unsure for a long time about what he wanted to do with his life. But the choice finally became obvious - about 50 members of his family, from great-grandfathers to cousins, had been or were doctors. "I used to listen to them talk about cases they had and it always seemed so very interesting," he said. His medical education began at Marshall College - now Marshall University - in Huntington, W.Va., during the 1930s, where his professors let him lecture in zoology lab before he even had a bachelor's degree. After graduatin from Marshall, he attended the Jefferson College of Medicine in Philadelphia. Dr. Connelly servied in the U.S. Army during World War II as a field doctor in the Phillipines, where he met his future wife - Maria - who died in 1979. After the war, he returned to Philadelphia to complete a residency in obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Pennsylvania, and then returned to Ashland, starting his practice here in 1951. In 1957, he served a seven-month fellowship at McGill University's Royal Victorian Hospital in Canada. In addition to his medical practice, Dr. Connelly was known as a classical pianist, as a composer, as an artist, as a self-trained architect who designed a family home that overlooks downtown Ashland from atop Dysard Hill, and as an amateur genalogist who traced his family's history back some 300 years. Surviving, in addition to his mother, are four daughters, Lisa Ziegler and Mary Wurtzebach, both of Denver, Colo., Melissa Behnke of Ashland, and Allison Connelly of Lexington; a son, Ned Connelly of Fort Mitchell; and 10 grandchildren.
