Group of spiritualist sisters
The Fox sisters were three sisters from Rochester, New York who played an important role in the creation of Spiritualism: Leah (April 8, 1813 – November 1, 1890), Margaretta (also called Maggie), (October 7, 1833 – March 8, 1893) and Catherine Fox (also called Kate) (March 27, 1837 – July 2, 1892). The two younger sisters reported "rappings" to convince their older sister and others that they were communicating with spirits as if by a coded signal.

From Wikipedia
The Fox sisters were three sisters from Rochester, New York who played an important role in the creation of Spiritualism: Leah (April 8, 1813 – November 1, 1890), Margaretta (also called Maggie), (October 7, 1833 – March 8, 1893) and Catherine Fox (also called Kate) (March 27, 1837 – July 2, 1892). The two younger sisters reported "rappings" to convince their older sister and others that they were communicating with spirits as if by a coded signal. Their older sister then took charge of them and managed their careers for some time. They all enjoyed success as mediums for many years. In 1888, Margaretta recanted her story, saying the rappings had been a hoax and publicly demonstrated their method, although she later retracted this confession. Despite their loss of credibility, the Spiritualism movement continued to grow in popularity.
