"Uncle Cornelius" Spy for the Confederate Army?

Family tradition holds that "Uncle Cornelius" was a spy for the Confederate Army.

My maternal gg grandmother was Annie Bethnia Cornelius Cannon. She was the daughter of Bluford Cornelius who was the son of William Jr, son of William of Revolutionary War service.

Many of the Cornelius' lived in Blount County, AL. I know that Bluford served in the Confederate Army but dont know about any of his brothers or his father William Jr. Just curious but are there any records of spys? :-)
