I'm guessing 1935. They were on the Barnes show that year, and co-starred with Shirley Temple and Joel McCrea in 20th Century-Fox's OUR LITTLE GIRL. The whole family is seen in the act, but Poodles is the only Hanneford named in the IMDb credits, as "Circus Performer". As for the sisters, Elizabeth Rebecca and Gracie may have done a turn in a variation of the standard "principal act", in which the star(s) of the big riding act had Center Ring moments earlier in the show. Gracie was Mrs. Poodles, but what circus paper cared if the girls weren't sisters?
