Yes, the tomb was found and yet they still deny it!
It contained much of the whole family.

At that time, everyone wanted to be buried in Jerusalem, the Holy city. There is a big Jesus's tomb and washing stone where he was washed after crucifixion. No one knows the precise location of the burials, since Jerusalem was wiped from the face of the earth and rebuilt again, by the Romans and the Crusaders. The symbols are there. I recommend anyone who has deep religious beliefs to go there, you will find the source of your belief.

+ The Blessed Virgin Mary +
May was buried near Ephesus, in present day Turkey. But the tomb is now empty.
Catholics believe in the assumption of the body of the Blessed Virgin Mary into heaven after her death.
John 19:26-27 states:
When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son." Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother." And from that hour the disciple (John) took her into his home.
The minutes of the Ecumenical Council of Ephesus in 431 C.E. indicate that four or six years after the death and resurrection of Jesus, John and the Virgin Mary came together to Ephesus, and for a short time stayed in the building, a section of which is now under Church of the Virgin Mary today.
Later John moved the Virgin Mary to a house he had prepared for her on Bulbul Dagi (Bulbul Hill). She lived there until the end of her earthly life.
St. John of Damascus (P. G., I, 96) later wrote:
St. Juvenal, Bishop of Jerusalem, at the Council of Chalcedon (451), made known to the Emperor Marcian and Pulcheria, who wished to possess the body of the Mother of God, that Mary died in the presence of all the Apostles, but that her tomb, when opened, upon the request of St. Thomas, was found empty; wherefrom the Apostles concluded that the body was taken up to heaven.

A couple of locations have been proposed for thye tomb of Mary, mother of Jesus. See first URL
But in the Catholic (and Orthodox) church there is a longstanding tradition that she was not buried, but that her body was assumed, "taken up", into heaven.
The Assumption was declared a dogma of the Roman Catholic faith by Pope Pius XII in 1950.

There are records of a lot of the Saints that are burried in places in Italy, some were burried in the catacombes in secret becausethere ws so much persecution. St. Peter is in St. Peters at the Vatican. There are records of many of them, you can research it!

No, and it's a very good thing too because people have the weakness towards idolatry. Anything would end up being worshipped!

Mary was "Assumed" into heaven: body, mind, and soul by Jesus. We all have hope that Jesus will "assume" us too.
She lived out her remaining years in Emphasis (turkey)

No one really knows, there's only speculation. But does it matter? i believe in Jesus although his remains have never been found. Jesus brings hope.
