Be careful how you think about this problem.  Some Unicode characters,
like U+0041, belong to just about every code page ever invented.
Others, like U+1900, probably belong to none.  Searching for "the" code
page of a Unicode character will return anywhere from zero to hundreds
of code pages.

That said, there are cross-mapping tables available at
http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/ (and other places as well).  You
could start by looking through those.
