You will find a wealth of information at http://www.apostles.com along with portraits of their likeness. Cross references in the Bible which are unfortunately few are also provided. The apostles went into all the known lands at the time. All were martyred except St John, the disciple who did not forsake Jesus at the cross.
You will find fascinating stories from St Andrew in Greece, doubting Thomas in India, St Jude (Thaddeus) in Armenia, St James and so on. Fascinating stories about 12 ordinary men doing extraordinary things!
