Traditionally, only St. John escaped martyrdom.

The information about the passions of the various apostles was pretty well known and recorded fairly consistantly in the stained glass and paintings of the Middle Ages.

Two other sources that pretty much verify your opening post are the Catholic “Golden Legend” and the Protestant “Fox’s Book of Martyrs”, both books were huge best sellers.
