Original Note:
Five signers of the Declaration of Independence were captured by the British during the course of the Revolutionary War. However, none of them died while a prisoner. They were taken into custody not because they were "traitors" but because they were prisoners of war. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/the-price-they-paid/
