The 1848 Boston City Directory lists a Josephine Tucker as a teacher at the Quincy School. The Old Quincy School opened in 1848 in Chinatown and is noted as the first public school where the students were divided by grade levels. Josephine is not listed in the 1850 directory, making this a probable 1848 cover.
