Why aren't some of my ancestors not listed in the new cemetery app?

Question

I like the new cemetery app that was in today's WikiTree News email.  However, several of my ancestors are not shown in the cemetery that they are buried in.  I've indicated the cemetery in their biographies but perhaps there is a specific cemetery or burial entry that should be used?  I've attached an example profile of my great Grandfather buried in Oak Park Cemetery in New Castle, PA.

Answer 1

Hi Paul,

See this G2G post for more information on the Cemetery Map App. It is based on WikiTree Cemetery Categories that have geographic coordinates in the Cemetery CategoryInfoBox.

The profile that you included in your post does not have any categories. You can add the associated cemetery category before the Biography heading in the profile:

[[Category:Oak Park Cemetery, New Castle, Pennsylvania]]

Thank you.

Answer 2

This profile was never categorized.  I went ahead and added the category but the category has to be added to the profile for it to show up.

Thank you.  I did not know about categories.
