All of the Levites, and all of the women and children. Plus Joshua and Calev.
The Levites survived: Talmud, Bava Bathra 121.
The women survived: Rashi commentary, Numbers 26:64.
The children survived: because the decree of dying in the wilderness applied only to men aged twenty and over (Rashi, Numbers 14:29).
All of the above is based upon Israelite tradition going all the way back.
