The names of the people who are buried under the site of the chapel are listed on two white marble slabs. These slabs are set in the wall of the chapel and face the graveyard at Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, PA.
A number of headstones are in storage at the church, but it is not known if these headstones are for those people who are commemorated on the plaques.
