According to this site:

https://www.genealogy.com/ftm/h/i/c/James-R-Hicks-VA/BOOK-0001/0002...

this Delilah (Adair) Starr was the daughter of Edward Adair II, not his parents Edward Adair I and Martha 'Patsy' Ritchier:

DELILAH4 ADAIR (EDWARD3, EDWARD2, JAMES ROBERT1) was born July 26, 1814 in CNE [TN], and died November 16, 1862 in Cane Hill, AR.She married JOSEPH MCMINN STARR, SR July 20, 1831 in CNE, son of CALEB STARR and NANCY HARLAN.He was born January 01, 1808 in CNE [TN], and died August 10, 1864 in Boggy Depot, Choctaw Nation.

Her name is listed incorrectly. She was born an Adair and married a Starr.

This profile is a duplicate for her that has her connected correctly to her husband but her parentage is still incorrect:

Delilah Starr

Some trees have Edward II's wife / Delilah's mother listed as Nancy "Jennie" Shields (1790–), which could be where the Nannie Fields comes in who is attached as her mother on the duplicate profile. ?

So I Googled that and found these sources showing Edward Adair II and Nancy 'Nannie' Shields as parents of Delilah (Adair) Starr
