Seems to me that most or all of them were dead. Except for Maglor, all the great Elf-Lords in the Silmarillion are accounted for. The House of Finwe was primarily responsible for the revolt and leading the Noldor into exile.

Sons of Finwe:
Feanor was killed by Balrogs
Fingolfin died in combat with Morgoth
Finarfin turned back after the kinslaying, never reaching ME

Sons of Feanor
Maedthros cast himself into a pit of fire
Maglor is singing somewhere
Celegorm was slain by Dior
Caranthir also slain by Dior
Curufin also slain by Dior
Amrod died attempting to recover a Silmaril from Elwing
Amras died attempting to recover a Silmaril from Elwing

Sons of Fingolfin:
Fingon slain by Balrogs in the Nirnaeth
Turgon died in the sack of Gondolin

Sons of Finarfin:
Finrod was slain by a wolf defending Beren
Orodreth died fighting at the head of the army of Nargothrond
Angrod was killed by fire at the Dagor Bragollach
Aegnor also killed by fire at the Dagor Bragollach

Other notable elves:
Glorfindel died in Gondolin
Ecthelion died in Gondolin
Celebrimbor died in Eregion, presumably with a great number of the remaining Noldorin lords.
Gil-Galad died fighting Sauron. It is possible (probable?) that other Noldorin Lords died at this time, though I don't know if any evidence.

That leaves Galadriel, the only major player left that was present at the revolt and argued for leaving. I'm sure there is more to add here, but that's a start.
