Kind of an uneducated guess but if the calender started when Jesus died (at 32 or 33-?), either they were all dead or some had an extraordinarily long life-span in relation to the average back then.

The only one that we can say with certainty is James. There is some evidence that Peter died in Rome around 67-68 AD...and possibly Paul as well (the fall of Jerusalem was 70 AD). There are some traditions that tell about the fate of the other Apostles, but we have lost the ability (through time) to verify those accounts...

Edit: The only Apostle we can say with certainty to have lived beyond the fall of Jerusalem is John. The others could have died either before or after 70 AD....

I believe only James,the brother of John who was killed by one of the Herods.Probably Paul was next around 70 AD.
Stephan wasn't an Apostle so he doesn't count here.The rest were martyred between 70 and 100 AD except John,who may have died of old age on Patmos.

I don't know for sure....I think all of them...check Foxes book of Martyrs. That may tell you when (and how) they died.
