Artrip/Hill legend

In the Hill family, the legend goes there was an Indian chief named Artrip who was wounded and nursed back to health by a white woman named Hill. They had a child & it was named Wesley Hill. The Indian chief Artrip is supposedly buried on Paint Creek in Kentucky.

Now we all know that there is sometimes a little bit of truth hidden in myths and legends.

Has anyone in the Artrip family heard this legend?

I am researching the Hill family from Morgan County Kentucky.

Thank you.
