This article introduces fourteen public primary teachers who had taught from 1870 to 1885 in Cotia, a countryside municipality in the surroundings of São Paulo. The aim was to examine their teaching practice as well their engagement in other sectors of society. It focuses on a male and a female teachers who were responsible for the first masculine and feminine schools for over than 25 years. They formed a couple in their private life and taught in the same schoolhouse. The main sources were reports from teachers, government and inspectors, newspapers, enrollment books, demographic data, baptismal and marriage certificates, and letters. The article is divided into three sections. In the first one, we present Cotia and its culture conceived as caipira. Next, we explore the trajectory of the teaching couple. Finally, we highlight some information about the ten other male teachers and two female ones. K e y w o r d s : history of education, primary teachers, Empire of Brazil, public school.
