    (May 11, 1811-January 17, 1874)
    Toured as a freakish curiosity

Why they might be annoying:

    When they moved to America, they changed their last name to Bunker to fit in (???).
    As farmers, they raised tobacco.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Chang married Adelaide Yates and Eng married her sister, Sarah, in North Carolina.
    They had 22 children among them.
    Eng died 2½ hours after Chang died of a blood clot.
    They turned their handicap into an advantage.
    Conjoined twins are still referred to as Siamese Twins because of them (They were born in Siam (Thailand)).
