I requested a copy of a Civil War pension file using this site's online order form. It was very easy and intuitive, and the turnaround time for the requested copy was extremely quick. The images were nice and clear, and the price very reasonable considering the comparative wait time and price for NARA services. I would highly recommend this site to others looking for copies of pension files.

Civil War package I would absolutely recommend using gopher record's. Mater of fact I just ordered my 3 rd soldiers civil war records from gopher records . . I receive the records pretty fast 2-3 weeks . I can’t wait to explore my war of 1812 and revolutionary war ancestors .

I ordered the Bounty Land Application File for Mexican War soldier Lewis B. Moore and received the files a mere eight days later! The scans are great quality and very easy to read, and the documents led me to some previously unknown information! And, when asked about a source citation, Bob Velke was readily available to help me craft one! Definitely a great purchase and will be ordering more records again soon!

This is the first time I had used Gopher Records which had been recommended by one of my facebook groups. The service was very prompt, and I received very clear scans of the 137 page widow's pension file I had requested.

I have used Gopher a couple of times for Civil War records and they have been great! Both orders were filled very quickly and professionally. I received a significant discount on one order because they found some of the records were already available online. They are a great, honest business to work with and I highly recommend them!

i would highly recomend gopher records to anyone. they have an amazing team who always does their best to get you exatly what you're looking for.

I was expecting it to take much longer to get the records back, but not only were they fast, but the quality of the scanned images was high. I would recommend this service to anyone!

Bob was very pleasant to work with. He was efficient, kept me informed, and provided me with good contextual information to understand the materials he found. Highly recommended and will use his services again when I encounter my next need.

Gopher delivered the records I ordered in just over a week! I ordered the records from NARA first (just service records) two months ago and was still waiting, so I decided to see if Gopher Records could produce them faster. AND THEY DID. I ordered service/medical/pension from Gopher since it was a good deal, and they was able to get them all to me, WAY faster and cheaper than NARA. I found incredible information, documents (birth & marriage certificates, a divorce degree, family history, address history, etc.) and got a lot of questions answered from the documents I received.

I have ordered a few pension files via Gopher and they are my "Gofor" when I need something from NARA. Recently I received a civil war pension file in just 8 days and it was 221 pages! Thank you Gopher for your prompt and thorough service.
