Chang and Eng Bunker were the world’s most famous conjoined Siamese twins, and their final resting place is in the White Plains Baptist Church Cemetery in Mount Airy. Born in Siam in 1811, Chang and Eng Bunker were conjoined at the chest and traveled the world as an independent act known as the famed “Siamese Twins.” They settled on a small plantation in the town of Traphill in North Carolina, where they married and subsequently had 21 children! The twins died in 1874 and were laid to rest in Mount Airy, and it is estimated that around 1,500 descendants of the famous twins still reside in the vicinity of Mount Airy.
