Is there an easier way to look for who was living in Crown Way rather than trawling through all of the census for that area

My 3xgt grandfather was born 1847 there but have not been able to find his parents marriage, so I thought perhaps his mother lived there under her maiden name of Sarah Barker or perhaps her parents were there.

Having just looked at the divisions of Worcestershire for the 1841 census the town of Stourbridge is'nt there, what would it come under.

The 1841 census is on-line.
If you give the full details of your 3xGrandfather, I'm sure someone will look for you.

Thanks Willow but I know where 3xgt grandfather was in 1841, in Stourbridge. He is living with his aunt
Then on 1851 census he is with his son (2xgt grandfather) and down as Widowed, and living with his aunt again. Son born 1847 in Stourbridge and I think I have his wifes death cert in 1849,
So just wanted to see if there was a family called Barker living near him as that is all I have to go on as I cannot find a marriage.

Thank you both. The Sarah Mike found looks promising. Now to find the marriage!

Update. The Sarah Barker Mike found was still at home on the 1851 census.
