According to the report of the Provincial Steering Committee 515, the verification results show that there were 1,641 martyrs initially buried in Nghe An province. To date, 1,381 martyrs have been gathered in cemeteries. Of the 260 martyrs who have not yet been gathered, 88 have had information about their graves after information collection, 11 of which have been verified.

The conference also pointed out many difficulties and obstacles in this work such as the long time of sacrifice, the changing terrain, many pieces of information could not identify the hometown and unit when sacrificed, so the comparison and verification encountered many difficulties. In addition, many witnesses were no longer around or were old and weak, so determining the location and burial place of the martyrs encountered many difficulties, significantly affecting the accuracy when verifying the graves as well as the areas to measure, draw maps to search for and collect the martyrs' remains.
