Sandra: The short cut way is to find Legge Street in a Directory at some time as close as possible to 1841 (but inevitably a few years away). Then, select someone living in Legge Street with as distinctive a name as possible, and search for them in an 1841 census name index, such as Ancestry. With any luck, this will take you to Legge Street in the census.
