@adaliveslife: Did yall know the Bunker Twins settled down there in Wilkes & Surry counties? Chang and Eng Bunker became famous around the world, but one of the most fascinating chapters of their story happened right here in the foothills of North Carolina. From Wilkes County to Surry County, their story is one I can’t believe we didn’t learn more about growing up. Whatch-yall know about the Bunker Twins? #bunkertwins #wilkescounty #surrycounty #appalachian #truestory
the only thing they were sharing was a liver. in today's day, they would have easily been separated.

Odd story but there is a photo of them in the museum on main street. We went there in third grade on a field trip. I looked at the photo and passed out😭. No idea why but the museum volunteers was the best as from what I can remember.
