I am working on a genealogy brick wall and realized a Civil War pension application may have information I needed. I saw that it could take months to get the files directly from NARA. Bob & Gopher Records had my files to me in less than a week. I appreciated the status updates, Bob provided throughout the process. In sum, this is an extremely professional organization that delivers exactly what they tell you they will, faster than expected, at a reasonable price. I wish more businesses were run this way.

Gopher Records uncovered an incredible treasure trove of family service and pension records that included correspondence letters - more than 300 pages of legible documents I had no idea existed. The process was quick, thorough, and affordable. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

I recently hired Gopher Records' Service to find more historical and genealogical information on my family and ancestors. They were quick, pleasant to work with, and got me exactly what I was looking for, helping me find information on my ancestors that no one has brought forward before. I am very thankful to them and a very satisfied customer who would definitely recommend them in the future.

This was my first order from Gopher Records and will definitely not be my last. I received excellent scans quickly, and for a good price. I have been very frustrated with the National Archives service, which seems to have deteriorated dramatically. I am definitely switching to Gopher.

prompt, efficient service, just what was ordered.

Gopher Records is the place to go for soldier pension files. I've used them more than once and they are profession, knowledgeable, helpful, and the least expensive option I've found. I can't recommend them highly enough. In addition, you don't pay until they email to tell you they have the files ready. You pay using whichever payment option you like, and they email the file to you INSTANTLY. This is definitely the way to go.

I’ve ordered three sets of records. They came fast, easy to access right through my email. It’s helped my fit in a few more pieces to my family history puzzle and learn a little more about my Civil War Ancestors. So grateful for this service since I’d have no idea where to even start to go research these documents on my own. Well worth the money.

A friend recommended your service and I recently used it for the first time. I am very please with your process and the information you provided. I will be using you again next time. Thank you!

I heard about Gopher Records on Civil War Talk Radio, so I decided to give it a try. I had 40+ year-old faded, poor quality photocopies of my great-great grandfather's Civil War records that I wanted to update/replace and also asked for records on two other Civil War veteran ancestors. Gopher Records noted that records on one veteran were already digitized and available on Fold3. Records for the other two were provided 8 days after I requested them. The scan quality is excellent. I'll definitely use Gopher Records again. Thank You.

As usual, the file is complete and sent on time as promised. This is a great service.
