Atlanta and Environs: A Chronicle of Its People and Events: Vol. 1: 1820s-18702, by Franklin Miller Garrett, pg 395:
Patrick Connally (or Connelly) was a native of Ireland, who before his death in 1851 had acquired the Arcade site and a tract of land through which Connally Street, named for him, now runs. His only child, Mary Ann, wife of Daniel Dougherty, inherited both tracts, the Arcade tract being still owned by some of her descendants. Daniel Dougherty, also a native of Ireland, established the first bakery in Atlanta, and in conjunction therewith also operated a ten pin alley, both on the site of the Peachtree Street end of the present Peachtree Arcade. Mr. Connally is buried in Oakland Cemetery.
