You can add a Category yourself:

Go to one of your profiles that need it and add [[Category: Saint John's Lutheran Cemetery, Berrysburg, Pennsylvania]]  (notice the cemetery sign in the picture on Findagrave has an apostrophe in 'John's'). When you save that addition,and go back to the profile, the Category will be red.  Click on it to open it.  In the big editing box, add the Category [[Category: Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, Cemeteries]] and [[Category: Dauphin County, Pennsylvania]].  Save those additions at the bottom of the page you're on, and your new Category will work now.  You can then add [[Category: Saint John's Lutheran Cemetery, Berrysburg, Pennsylvania]] to any other Profiles.
One amendment to Robert's instruction. The second category you add as a parent for the cemetery category should be the Berrysburg, Pennsylvania category, not the county category.

Since the cemetery category is in the county cemeteries category, it does not also need to be in the main county category, but the category for a cemetery should be in the category for the locality where the cemetery is located.
I do know the procedure however I was  otherwise busy with my eldest son being in the hospital and undergoing surgery.  Rather than making a mistake due to what is going on in my life I felt it best to request the creation of the category. I have requested creation of cemetery categories in the past and did not think it would create a problem to do so now.
Thanks Ellen, I knew that about town instead of county.  Don't know why I typed that!
I hope everything goes well with your son.

Hi Jacqueline. Robert's comment is right on target - if it was an Answer I would have selected it as Best Answer!  Since it's been two days and you have not yet created the category for Saint John's Lutheran Cemetery, Berrysburg, Pennsylvania, I did it for you.  Categorize away!

Sorry. Missed this one. I have been working thru the wanted categories list and usually pull out the cemeteries first to add their categories and other information on the new category page.
