Super impressed!

I heard about Gopher on a Civil War Facebook page I’m a member in, and didn’t have high expectations for affordability OR quick turnaround. Let’s face it: Genealogy work is endlessly disappointing with costs and time to wait to receive what you’re looking for. I filled out a free records assessment and Bob replied within two days (incredible!) with a level of detail I didn’t expect from a free evaluation. I had initially only hoped to find medical records of my ancestor’s injuries, but Bob found some interesting paperwork filed by a Congress member, so I ended up ordering [...]

Faster, Less Expensive, and Good Quality!

I am so glad I took the chance and ordered a pension file through Gopher Records. I had ordered a different pension file from the National Archives before, and it took many, many months before I got the results back. Gopher Records charged much less and got me clear digital copies of the file within a week! Downloading the file was easy too. I will definitely use Gopher Records again if I the need arises and can honestly recommend their service without any reservations.

I am very pleased with the information that I received from Gopher Records!

Pension files

I was very happy to learn about Gopher Records and how they often can locate more records than I have been able to online. They recently found pension records for two of my relatives and I so appreciate having these records! If you decide to have them get records for you, I would suggest you review all the helpful information they have on their website. It helped answer several questions I have had.

Fast, Efficient,, and Cost Effective Civil War Record Service

I am so appreciative of the service provided by Gopher Records. They respond in a timely manner - usually only a week or two even with very large orders like this one which had close to 1000 pages. And the records are clear and easy to read. The entire process of ordering and paying for and downloading the files is also very organized, easy, and efficient. In the past I have traveled myself to the archives to search for and copy files and I have ordered directly from the archives. In doing it myself, I left wondering if I had [...]

Excellent Service, Prompt Response, Quality Results

I have submitted two requests for pension files and have had the same excellent service for both. I have submitted online and in-person requests directly to NARA in the past and Gopher is night and day better. The submission process is a breeze. As a user I am kept informed of the progress via an online account and the results are available in days. The quality of the scans is top-notch (better than I would do myself, in-person). This service is DEFINITELY worth the price. If I still lived in the DC area, [...]

CW Pension Papers

Great working with Bob. He double checked my request to make sure I was actually asking for the proper files and gave me the proper direction. Great experience.

Records request

Gopher made an extra effort to obtain the requested information. Much appreciated.

Top Notch

As always, Bob completes the order very quickly and the order process is seamless. Thanks again for the great service

Fast & fantastic price!

I got my ancestor’s records from the Civil War much faster & cheaper than I would have through NARA- thanks again!
