Apollo 1 was on Pad 34, Cape Kennedy, or as it's now known Launch Complex 34, Cape Canaveral.
No Apollo mission had any casualties. The Apollo 1 Fire was during testing, not a mission. The Apollo 13 explosion was tough... but no one died.
No one. After the fire of Apollo 1, all missions up to Apollo 6 included were unmanned test flights.
Virgil "Gus" Grissom was the second American in space. He tragically lost his life in the Apollo 1 spacecraft fire along with astronauts Ed White and Roger B. Chaffee during a pre-launch test for the Apollo program.
The Apollo 2 was unmanned. After the fire of Apollo 1, NASA felt safer testing the rocket without any crew aboard first. The next manned mission after the Apollo 1 fire was Apollo 7.
The Apollo mission that crashed was Apollo 1. In 1967, a cabin fire during a prelaunch test resulted in the loss of the entire crew - astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee. This tragedy led to significant redesigns in the Apollo spacecraft to improve crew safety.

All the mountains caught on fire, but all the houses are ok. I was one of the people who lived up there !
Apollo7 was sent in space ,after the first one caught fire, Apollo 8 went to the moon and returned. Apollo 9 tested the lunar module in earth orbit, Apollo 10 tested the lunar module in lunar orbit. Apollo 11 landed on the moon, the rest landed on the moon as well.
