The Dionne quintuplets (French pronunciation:[djɔn]; born May 28, 1934) are the first quintuplets known to have survived their infancy.
The identical girls were born just outside Callander, Ontario, near the village of Corbeil.

All five survived to adulthood.[1]
The Dionne girls were born premature. After four months with their family, custody was signed over to the Red Cross, which paid for their care and oversaw the building of a hospital for the sisters.
Less than a year after this agreement was signed, the Ontario government stepped in and passed the Dionne Quintuplets' Guardianship Act, 1935
