In 1921 two Pearson brothers were executed in Coolacrease, Ireland. They were caught in the Irish War of Independence and it was reported that: The two Pearson brothers who were executed by irish Nationalists were Richard Henry "Dick" and Abraham Pratt "Abe" Pearson, the sons of William and Susan Pearson, Sr. While their father and a younger brother, Sidney, were attending a convention about thirty-five miles away, these two older unmarried sons were shot by a firing squad numerous times in their back yard and left to die. None of the shots were fatal, and the two men suffered agony for six and fourteen hours respectively before they died. The women dragged a mattress away from the burning house into the field and somehow managed to get the two dying men onto it. Several family members were professing in the 2x2 Sect and were known as "Cooneyites". The family moved to Australia after this event. Details on Wikipedia and TTT.

Edward Cooney from Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, N. Ireland He was excommunicated in 1928 for various reasons. Among them was the failure of his attempt to convince the leaders that they had abandoned the original tenets of the faith. When his preaching became more and more in conflict with current policies, he was ousted and those who agreed with him were also expelled. They formed a separate branch which is referred to as the Cooneyites. He continued his worldwide missions as an itinerant evangelist until his death in 1960.

From the Age, Melbourne, Australia Shortly before she committed suicide last year with her younger brother, 15-year-old Narelle Henderson, of Kinglake West, wrote on her arm: "Kurt Cobain is a legend." A diary found later at Narelle's home included more references to Cobain, lead singer of the American band Nirvana, who had shot himself dead several months earlier. "Kurt you are so f lucky. I would give anything to be' where you are or with you." Narelle's obsession with the grunge rock hero was cited by a coroner yesterday as a contributing factor in her suicide with her 12-year-old brother, Stephen Henderson, in the Mount Robinson State Park at Pheasants Creek in November last year. Both had bullet wounds to the back of the head. But while Cobain's suicide was influential, the dread of attending a forthcoming religious camp was probably uppermost in the children's minds at the time they shot themselves, and the immediate motivation for their suicide pact, the coroner, Ms Jacinta Heffey, found. A suicide note found in clothing worn by Narelle said: "We want to tell (whoever finds us) not to make anybody go to Meetings or Church if they really hate it. "It destroys your life and we considered running away or other things but we were afraid we would be found and get in trouble and made to go back to our awful lives . . ." The children were due to attend a four-day religious convention either the night before or the day of the convention. Ms Heffey said in her finding: "It would seem clear that the imminent 'convention' was uppermost in the children's minds and was the immediate motivation behind the joint suicide." But Ms Heffey said Narelle was "also influenced to some degree" by the suicide of Cobain in April 1994. A letter found in Narelle's room, in which the text was written backwards, said: "Satan I need help, I want to serve you and be a devil worshipper. God is dead and no one cares. I am planning to kill myself on Tuesday. When I die let me be a devil or demon and destroy everyone who hurt me. I might have a seance and try and communicate with Kurt Cobain I love him, when I die can I meet him please I need to. Let me be a devil or demon." - Hill, James, Clyde Brownlee & Others
