@file_1894_8_30_aug_2003_copy_jpg -> depicts -> @wedding_announcement# Reorganization Summary Files were organized primarily by correspondent and content type. The largest groups are letters from Julia Martin and Trude, which provide insight into their personal lives and relationships with Alice Austen. Smaller groups include letters about specific trips (Adirondacks and Yellowstone) and a wedding announcement. Standalone envelopes were grouped separately. This organization maintains consistency with the guidance provided while accurately reflecting the content's themes and relationships. ## Groups Created - **Julia_Martin_Letters**: Personal correspondence from Julia Martin to Alice Austen, discussing her plans to open a boarding house in Santa Barbara and other personal matters. - **Trude_Letters**: Letters from Trude to Alice Austen, discussing family life, social activities, and travels. - **Adirondack_Trip_Letter**: Letter from P.M. about a trip to the Adirondacks and deer hunting. - **Yellowstone_Park_Letter**: Letter from 'J. Butterball' about travels in Yellowstone Park and photography. - **Wedding_Announcement**: Announcement of the marriage of Anna Louise to Mr. Samuel Wann. - **Envelopes**: Standalone envelopes with no letter content.
