I don't know what to say. I had something similar happen to me recently but
I know why my finches died. I was camping with Dad and Mom (who was taking
care of the birds) didn't understand the difference between Parakeet seed
and Finch seed (despite it being clearly marked). The only thing I can think
of for you is to get some necropsies done. Have you had your water or
air-quality checked?

Necrospy, the non-human version of an autopsy, to find out why they
died.
Once you know that, you can take steps to prevent it in the future.
