Cooks Mentioned in Franklin Co. NC Court Minutes(March 1811)

Found mention of William Cook and Pope Cook in the Franklin County, North Carolina Court Minutes of March 1811.  

Minutes of March Court 1811, p 58

Ordered that Atha Thomas be appointed overseer
of the road from Billy's Creek to Chavis Road, and
that he keep the same in repair with the hands
of William and Pope Cook, William and Willie
Winston, James York, William, and Jesse Winston and
his own.

Is this William Pope Cook and his presumed father William Cook of Shem Cooke's line?  I don't know, but it is exciting to see these names together.
