There is a 3/6/xx cover from this correspondence in the census addressed to Miss Martha Anna Huntington in Owego, NY. That cover is docketed 164 in the upper left corner. This one is the next one in the sequence. These are the only 2 1847 issue covers to Miss Huntington in the census.
Alexander lists a 3/14/xx cover to unknown in the census that may be for this cover but the image is too faint to verify the 3/13 dating so I’ll take Richard Frajola’s word for it.
Martha Anna Huntington (Oct 12, 1825 - Sept 25, 1890) was married on June 27 1848 in Owego, NY to Milton Waldo Hanchett (1822-1904). She died in Syracuse, NY. This dates the cover to 1848.
