Wondering how the Land (Lands) families in Carroll County, GA were connected/related to the James M. Cook family, some of whom moved on to Cleburne County, AL by 1880's.

ROOKS, age 20, born Georgia Isabel Rooks, age 20, born GA Jacob, age 1, born Georgia Here is what the 1860 census (again from a transcribed book) says for LAND families in the 1860 census in Carroll County, GA: next door to James Cook and Isabell (his wife) and family are: household 53 T.K.

Trying to determine which COOK family that her husband James M. Cook descended from. There appears to be several COOK families in Carroll County, GA at the same time that James M. Cook and Isabel lived there, and not sure if they are related to each other, or how, if so.
