I have a really good book in my library, “Frozen in Time”, by Owen Beattie and John Grieger, that documents the discovery of the bodies of three seamen from the expedition. There are several really good color pictures of the condition of the body of one of the men. Made me shiver with cold just looking at his poor face. Gonna have to read through it again. Fascinating, and tragic.

I recall seeing a photograph in, as I recall a National Geographic magazine, sometime in the late 70's, maybe early 80's of the body of a British seaman, believed to be one of the Franklin expedition's crew, but as far as an large number, or a mass grave, no, I've never heard of such a find...
