If you know the College he attended, then write to the Archivist there and you may get a good deal of information: for many reasons the Colleges like to maintain records and contact with alumni and alumnae. Registers are published, but I think that online access via Ancestry's digitisation of Alumni Cantabrigiensis ends in 1900.
Unfortunately the Alumni Cantabrigiensis ends too soon, but, yes, perhaps I'll get in touch with the archivist of what I think could be his college and see what happens.
