LEANDER female married to MOORE or LAND male

In hopes of determining my father's ancestry. His dad's middle name was Leander, and the tradition in the family is for the males' middle names to be maiden names of grandmothers -- hence the search for Leander females who married men surnamed Land or Moore. The LAND family might have been in SC, LA, or MS throughout the 1800s. The Moore family was probably in MS the whole century, but likely had roots in KY. Also, there's supposed to be an "Indian" connection, possibly Cherokee. So I'd love to know of any Indian LEANDERs whether or not you have specific clues as to a connection.
