Joseph, on his death bed, instructed his sons to take his bones out of Egypt when they left and bury him wherever they went. He didn’t want to be buried in Egypt.

Yes that is true. What I do not know nor how it can be established whatever 'bones' are in that tomb can be accurately said to be those of Joseph. There is a long history of grave robbing but I am not doubting his burial spot. I do think it would be most curious and enlightening *if* they are Joseph's bones what the story his DNA would tell.
