Swearing?


Wed., March 18, 1936 - Goodlings have a baby boy, born early this a.m.  Seem to be feeling better.  Mom called up about 6:00.  Niemans went to town tonite and took me up home.  Mom was at Thies' quilting so I had to go up there to see her.
Thurs., March 19, 1936 - I don't think this ??? rheumatism is getting any better.  The worst part is getting in and out of bed.  Irene came about 5:00 and we went to Lewis for treatments.  Howard was here at Nieman's when we came back.
Fri., March 20, 1936 - Rheumatism not any better.  Irene and Helen came to schoolhouse for me.  Irene and I each had an adjustment.  The girls had a shampoo and fingerwave.  We had a farewell party for Jean and Marjorie C.

Are those question marks Grandma's way of swearing about her rheumatism?  She certainly seems to have been patient with it so far, but everybody has a limit.

As for Baby Goodling, I found a Walter "Ed" Goodling, Jr. born on the right day, buried in Pennsylvania.  His parents were Walter, Sr. and Bertha Koch Goodling.  The information says the junior Goodling was a retired farmer and carpenter.  His parents are buried in Pennsylvania as well.  Another Goodling son, Donald "Buster" Goodling was born in 1928 in Laurel, Nebraska and buried in the same cemetery as the rest of the family.  It's got to be the right family, I would think.
