There are probably many explorers and their crews who died of scurvy and/or hunger but I think the most famous example would be the Franklin's lost Arctic Expedition. They left England in 1845 seeking a particular route to complete the Northwest Passage. All 128 crew members died. Many died from the effects of scurvy, malnutrition, and exposure to the elements. Notably, many died from lead poisoning. It has been shown that much of the food thay carried was improperly tinned but other more recent evidence shows that their water distillation system was also, or maybe primarily, responsible for the lead poisoning.

scurvy. The Saint Rafael was burned because of the lack of crew. The scurvy was the worst on the way back to Portugal in which it took da Gama and his crew 3 months to cross over the Indian Ocean back to the east coast of Africa.

Nobody died from scurvy on Captain Cook's first voyage. He was very careful to include citrus syrups and sauerkraut as part of his crew's diet, to ensure that they did not succumb to scurvy. However, after departing from today's North Queensland, following necessary repairs to the Endeavour, many of the crew succumbed to dysentery and typhoid. Over thirty died at Batavia or on the return journey home via Cape Town, South Africa.
