We have Mary Ethel /Quarterman/, like this:
John QUARTERMAN Sr., father of
Thomas QUARTERMAN Sr., father of
Thomas QUARTERMAN, father of
Thomas QUARTERMAN, father of
Thomas William QUARTERMAN, father of
Lewis Walker QUARTERMAN, father of
Mary Ethel QUARTERMAN mother of
I'm guessing this line continues:
Fleta Mae DAY mother of
Connie SADLER.
Here's my line from John Quarterman, Sr.:
John QUARTERMAN Sr., father of
Thomas QUARTERMAN Sr., father of
Robert QUARTERMAN, father of
Edward William QUARTERMAN, father of
Thomas Shepard QUARTERMAN, father of
David Sinclair QUARTERMAN, father of
David Sinclair QUARTERMAN Jr., father of
John Sinclair QUARTERMAN.
Thus we would appear to be sixth cousins once removed.

As the charts show, Thomas Quarterman Sr. married three times;
you're descended from his first wife Rebecca Bacon; we're descended
from his third wife, Rebecca Baker.
