I think that is what I am trying to do. I create the group at admin.microsoft.com and then go to SharePoint and try to add that group to the document library. That is where the group does not show up.

rheitrich when you create a new SharePoint site, from the new SPO admin center, or from the SPO home page, you automatically get an Office 365 Group, which eliminates the need to create this group as you did.
Since you already the sites created, i'm assuming that you created them in the old/classic SPO Admin Center, and use the classic Team site template. If this is the case, you can follow the instructions in the article written by jcgonzalezmartin at https://www.petri.com/adding-new-office-365-group-existing-classic-sharepoint-online-site
