Daisy and Violet Hilton (1908-1969) were born in Brighton, England, to a poor unmarried barmaid called Kate Skinner. Skinner sold the conjoined twins to her employer, Mary Hilton, who trained them to sing, dance and play music. The sisters were subsequently exhibited all over the United States and Europe. Daisy Hilton is reputed to have said, "We don't mind having people stare at us. We're used to it. We've never known anything else."
