I highly recommend Gopher Records for anyone conducting genealogy research into military records. My area of interest is Union Army personnel who served during the Civil War. Using pension card information, Gopher has found all of the soldier data I requested and in far less time than if I submitted a request directly to the National Archives. The service fee is quite reasonable and worth every penny when you need answers in a timely fashion. I've used Gopher Records at least 4 or 5 times and the turnaround has never been more than a week [...]

This is the second time I’ve used Gopher Records. Just like last time I will absolutely say this is a 5 star service. I received the records quickly and the quality of the document scans were great. This time I ordered the pension record of my 3rd great grandfather who fought at Shiloh and Corinth. In the record were several affidavits from him and men who served with him that described his experiences during the war. I am truly thankful for Gopher Records and that it allows me to uncover this information about my ancestor and his experiences.

Found records for my great-grandfather who served during the early 1900’s and the Spanish-American war. Plan on having a few other searches conducted on other family members.

Fast, accurate, inexpensive... and accessible. What's not to like?!

Their Customer Service is Second to one. They exceed my expectations every time I have used them. Extremely Fast and Efficient every time.

I don't know why I didn't do this sooner. The information in the files has filled in the stories of my several of family lines. It is easy to order and the service was quick. The quality of the scan was excellent.

Oh my gosh! Gopher records is SO speedy, and VERY thorough. I ordered a civil war pension file and paid the standard price of $45. The file turned out to be over 300 pages. If I had ordered from NARA, it would have taken forever to receive it and it would have cost me over $220. I can’t recommend Gopher Records highly enough!

Gopher Records makes getting a copy of an ancestor's military records quick and easy. I found their service very affordable and highly recommended them.

I was very impressed with the speed and efficiency that was shown by Gopher Records after trying recently for the first time. They were also very reasonably with their prices. I would certainly recommend them to others and will certainly be using them again in the future.

I sent a request not expecting much. Bob replied quickly with what was available and once I ordered I had it within a week! Now I’m looking for anything else he can get for me as he delivers quickly at a reasonable price.
