I ordered from Gopher Records about a month ago to search for my husband's Great-great grandfather's Civil War Records. I was so pleased with what I found. Their service was very quick and reasonably priced! I was also so happy about how easy it was to communicate with them back and forth. I will be using Gopher Records from now on!

Bob and his team are extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Every transaction I have with Gopher Records has been a pleasure. They are extremely quick to fulfill orders, and the quality of the work is unmatched. Scans are excellent quality and easy to download, and great care is taken to ensure that the digital copy is complete and comprehensive. I work as an archivist, and have recommended Gopher Records to researchers, friends and colleagues numerous times. They are providing a wonderful service, and are a vastly better alternative to NARA's own dysfunctional and costly fulfillment services.

Gopher was fast, accurate and complete! I had my records in DAYS! The personal communication through email was also fantastic! If you need records from the NARA, Gopher can't be beat!

My records were easy to order and ready to download in no time at all. Very pleased with the price and speed. Will continue to use Gopher Records as I have many more ancestors that fought in the civil war and would love to have all of their records!

Bob and crew went way out of their way to retrieve the requested records within a week. But, he also found additional pertinent records which I didn't even know existed for a Civil War pension. I had previously ordered the exact same records through the National Archives (NARA) well over 6 months ago. NARA continuously sent me the wrong files and/or still haven't gotten back to me, despite emailing 10+ times and notifying them of the errors. I absolutely, positively will never use any other service other than Gopher Records. I suppose if you [...]

I highly recommend Gopher Records. They were great to work with and I had the information I requested in less than two weeks and at a very reasonable price. I would definitely use them again.

I have used another service in the past. Gopher Records is by far better.

Bob Velke with Gopher Records is the best. I am an avid genealogist and had been trying to get my great-grandfather's Civil War records for several years. Covid made the ability to get them even more trying. I contacted Bob in mid-August of 2022 and received Grandpa's pension and service records in a few weeks. I received over 130 pages of documentation that I was able to download. I'm still pouring over all of the information, but it has helped me immensely to understand more about his life, his disabilities, and their cause, his [...]

As a first time customer, I'm very pleased by the prompt and complete pension file documents from NARA that Gopher Records obtained on my Civil War ancestor.

Thank you so much to Bob for obtaining land records so quickly and even locating an additional file for us! After having waited and waited before receiving orders from National Archives it was such a pleasure to get the information in days, not months and months!
