Over the past year, I have ordered several sets of records (pension, service and medical) from GophurRecords.com, and have always been pleased with their service. Not only are the downloads clear and complete, but they are priced much less than files ordered direct from NARA, and arrive MUCH faster (by a matter of months!) I

I have used Gopher Records 7 times and will use again in the future. The orderiing process is easy, pricing affordable and records quick to arrive. The records have given me a glimpse into the lives of these ancestors and have filled in some blanks. I highly recomment their services for any genealogy enthusiast! Their
Almost unbelievable response to my request for Civil War records, just a matter of days! Looks like a very thorough search of records and delivery back to me. Worth the cost for sure. ( I found your name / advertisement in “The Banner ” , the quarterly magazine of the Sons of Union Veterans of
I needed a homestead file real quick to help me solve a family mystery. The file just provide more questions than answers. But I still couldn’t believe how great the service was. Thank you!
