Daisy Hilton and Violet Hilton (1908 - 1969) were a pair of British conjoined twins or Siamese Twins who toured in the U.S. sideshow and vaudeville circuit in the 1930s.The sisters were born joined by their hips and buttocks; they shared blood circulation and were fused at the pelvis but shared no major organs. These conjoined twins were the first born in the United Kingdom that survived for more than a few weeks. In 1926 Bob Hope formed an act called the Dancemedians with the Hilton Sisters, who had a tap-dancing routine. In 1932, the twins appeared in the film Freaks. They died at age 60 of the Hong Kong Flu.
