I would like advice or may need help creating a new category for the profile of Florence C (White) Slocum. The category might be named something like Beekman Cemetery, Poughquag, New York.

Could I get help creating the new category? Or is there an existing category to use? Thank you!

This category already existed even though it appears to have been typo'd.  It will require more research to fully correct.  In the meantime, please use this category.  This category has been placed on the profile for your convenience.

[[Category:Poughquag Cemetery, Beekman, New York]]

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

The correct category should be [[Category: Beekman Cemetery, Poughquag, New York]]. Which is as you suggested.  There is another cemetery in Poughquag also called Poughquag Cemetery although it has not been created as a category yet.  The town of Beekman is nearby but clearly both of these cemeteries are in Poughquag.  The FindAGrave I’d and all the profiles in the old category belong in this new category so I am transferring them.  Then I will reuse the old category for the real Poughquag Cemetery and edit the specifics so the FindAGrave I’d is correct.


With a little help from Natalie, this has all been fixed.  It looks like we were both fixing it at the same time but I think we are in sync with our corrections.
