Siblings of Gen. Benjamin Franklin Cheatham of Tennessee?

I am wondering if there is info that General Benjamin Franklin Cheatham (b. c1820) of Tennessee had a sister named Margaret?

I have a Margaret, married to Moses H. RISENER. Moses paid taxes in Warren County, Tennessee in 1836 & 1838, and was enumerated on the 1840 & 1850 census records for Coffee County, Tennessee. Moses was a Justice of the Peace in Coffee County in 1868, and has died before 1870.

The children of Margaret & Moses were Martha (married a Thacker), Jasper N., Thomas C. (fought in Civil War), Elizabeth, Susan Oregon (married a Hensley), Speaker, Franklin Cheatham & Michael A.

Franklin Cheatham Risener was born c1852. Could Margaret have named this son after her brother?

Thank you,
Juli
