There is no agreed standard as to what constitutes "C0" or "C3" or "C4", so you won't find that.

The lowest MIDI note 0 is a C and has a pitch of 8.18Hz. If you assume that Middle C (261.6Hz, the one below concert A) is C4, then that lowest C is C-2. But as mentioned, you'll see other interpretations. What doesn't change is the frequency. The "octave number" is arbitrary depending where you begin.
