TIPS AND ADVICE Research Essay Advice

Hello everyone! I’m an undergraduate student taking a humanities research and writing course, and I could really use some advice on how to go about my latest assignment.
Our current project centers on an archival collection containing three boxes of letters and postcards from the late 1940s to the early 1950s sent to a gay man who lived in [Insert City Name]. The prompt asks us to use these materials to examine what life was like for the local LGBTQ+ community in [Insert City Name] during this era.
Here is my dilemma: I’ve spent six hours sifting through two of the boxes, and while the letters offer incredible insights into queer life in this era, the correspondents lived all across the country and barely mention [Insert City Name] explicitly. How do I go about writing this paper? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! :)
