Burial of the dead from the 1st battle of Franklin

I had a relative who was killed at the 1st battle of Franklin on April 10, '63 while riding with Company B of the 28th Mississippi Cavalry. I talked with Eric Jacobson with the battle of Franklin trust who said he wasn't sure where the dead from the first battle were buried. He said there were about 4 men from the 28th Miss. Cav buried in the McGavock cemetery which holds those buried from the famous battle of Franklin non of which were my ancestor. Is there another cemetery that houses confederate dead, or should I assume he's somewhere under all of the urban sprawl in Franklin?
