Having used a different service in the past and having a bad experience, I was so glad to find so many others had great things to say about Bob and Gopher Records. He's been helpful in finding the correct individuals in my searches and is responsive to questions. The deliveries are before the estimations, and if it will take longer, I am advised of that. Thank you so much, awesome customer service!

I have received several document orders from Gopher Records now and am always pleased with the service. Communication, speed of service, document quality, and price are the best around! Highly recommended.

Gopher Records is a great asset to anyone who is looking for records from NARA. I will definitely be using them in the future.

Process was straightforward. The images I received were excellent quality. Communications were quick and helpful when I had an issue. I would use again and recommend to other researchers.

On the basis of a recommendation from the teacher of a Civil War genealogy class I took at the library, I tried this service. It was soooo much faster than going through the government!

I could not be happier with the service I have received from Gopher Records. Both time I have utilized this service, the turn around time was less than a week and was exactly what I wanted. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for files from the National Archives.

The amount of information discovered was surprisingly small relative to what could be expected, so I was very pleased when Bob gave me excellent suggestions based on his expertise on where to search next. I'd definitely recommend this service to anyone.

I recently received the Civil War Soldier's Bundle and I am SO grateful!! The information in the records answered some questions I had and prompted new ones! Thank you so much for the very quick response to my record request. I highly recommend this service!!

Gopher Records has retrieved several pensions for me. I could not be happier with their service and price. Each has contained valuable information--much of it containing sole-source genealogical facts. I have found pension fraud, child abandonment, bigamy, communications of historic import, and a physical artifact. Until you see a full pension packet, you have little idea how much you can get to know ancestors via them. The enclosed image is just the latest amazing discovery.
