In the 2x2 group it's like this: overseer, workers (men then women), elder, followers There are three main branches of the doctrinally secretive sect. They are the 2x2s (main branch), Irvinites (followers of William Irvine) and Cooneyites (Followers or Edward Coooney). 2x2sThe 2x2s are the main branch in existence today in many countries of the world. IrvinitesThe Irvinites follow after William Irvine after he was excommunicated by the newly established oveseers back in the day.

CooneyitesThe Cooneyites were excommunicated from the 2x2 movement for believing in following the leading of a spirit in guiding their movements instead of being organized into fields with assigned workers.
