In the 1950s, 2 sisters died in a tragic accident. Years later, their parents had twins who spoke of memories from the crash

In May 1957, tragedy struck the quiet English town of Hexham when two young sisters, Joanna and Jacqueline Pollock, were killed on their way to church. On May 5, 1957, a speeding car veered onto the pavement, killing the girls, who were 11 and 6 years old when they died, and their young friend.

The driver was a local woman reportedly struggling with mental illness, making the loss particularly traumatic. This tragic event became the backstory for one of the most famous modern cases linked to reincarnation.
