Edit : in response to the below answer, they keep records of everyone who has graduated (not sure if current student details are available to the public). They claim that their records go back hundreds of years but not sure how detailed these are, which is why I provided the links as the original poster can contact them giving the name and details (such as birth and death year if known, when the went to university etc... and they can check their records to see if they find a match.
