> It's more than likely that class structures at the time simply didn't record deaths of commoners

That's an interesting claim. Why do you think so? Considering cities were generally more or less run by "commoners".

e.g. https://medievalmurdermap.co.uk/maps/london/ is full of murdered commoners.

Many of the victims murdered by students in Oxford were just ordinary townsmen as well.
