Two English Actresses and Performers, Conjoined Twins. They were born on February 5, 1908, Brighton. The Hilton sisters toured Britain in 1911 (3 years) under the name 'United Twins'. Mary Hilton took them on a tour through Germany, then to Australia, and then in 1916 to the United States. In the fashion of a true sideshow, their performance was accompanied by a fictional "history". They returned to the United States in 1933. They began their relationship with musician Maurice Lambert, and they applied in 21 states for a marriage license, but they were always refused. In 1932, the twins appeared in the movie Freaks. After that, their popularity faded, and they struggled to make a living in show business. They were infected with the Hong Kong flu and died in their home. The forensic report stated that Daisy died first, then followed by Violet 3 or 4 days later.
