Alexander lists cover IS #6010 to an unknown addressee in New Haven Conn from NYC on Feb 7, 1848 and a Feb 6, 1848 cover (ID #6009) to Miss Eliz Champion in West Springfield Mass. The census also has two other covers, Feb 10 18xx (ID #7270) and Feb 14, 18xx (ID #7284) to Miss Champion in West Springfield Mass. Given the uncertainty of the date and the listing, I am noting this cover as unlisted in Alexander.
Docketed in upper left hand corner. Date appears to be Feb 5, 1848. This does not match any listing in Alexander. It may be the day the letter was written and not the day it was mailed. The CDS is also unreadable.
Not listed in Alexander
