As usual, it was completed and done quickly. Thank you.

I asked for information on three civil war ancestors. The response was quick, along with answers to questions, and guidance, as this was a first time requesting information like this for me. The final product of information and records I received was beyond anything I expected or could have ever found on my own. And the prices were very affordable for someone like me, a single person on a limited income. I highly recommend this service and would use again without hesitation. Thank you again for all the assistance and information. Respectfully, Diane Patterson

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.

This is the 2nd time I have received documents from Gopher Records. They are very prompt with delivering requested records. The first time I only ordered service records for 2 ancestors. This time I ordered service, pension, and medical. The medical and pension records alone were over 140 pages of information. Would highly recommend to anyone searching for more military info to use Gopher Records. Aside from the records themselves, Bob Velke is amazing at following up even after you receive your order to make sure you are satisfied and don't have any questions or issues!!!

I ordered my 3nd great grandfather's civil war records. The order was easily done, and was received quickly. It was relatively inexpensive for the amount of material that I received. I found some information in the records that I was not aware of. I do have other service records that I will be ordering. Thank you for your work. Kathleen

Being computer illiterate, I thought that all I had received was 4 records for my 3X great grandfather, 3 of which I had already found on my own. I was so disappointed! A couple of days later, I looked at the files sent to me, and discovered there was one I hadn't looked at yet. That file included 126 pages of records! Granted, a lot of it was repeated several times (I assume that's military effeciency), but I had new info and saw my ancestor's signature for the first time. I intend to send for records [...]

I requested homestead records and received them so fast I was shocked. They were very helpful and the price was amazing. If you need any records I highly recommend using Gopher Record you won't be disappointed. I plan on using them again for my dad's WWII records.

Wish I would’ve known about this sooner! Great service! Ordered three records but was only certain about two. Bob did research to help eliminate the one I was not certain about. Quicker response than indicated. Just ordered two additional records!

I found out about Gopher Records just after having gone through NARA (several years back) to pull another ancestor's CW pension records. I wish I had discovered GR sooner. I recently used GR for the first time this past June 2025. They provided incredible service at a very affordable price, and they completed their search for my 2nd GGF's pension records so fast it literally made my jaw drop! I was completely blown away! The prints were crisp and clear and did not disappoint. You are reading the review of one happy customer who will continue to be a [...]

Fast and easy in 40 years of collecting I have never recieved records so fast And easy (3 days). My sincere thanks!!
