Pleased
I treated myself to the Civil War bundle, offered before Christmas. Although I had personally researched and looked at my ancestors' muster roll records at the National Archives, many years ago, the pension files intimidated me and I decided to hand it off to the experts. I'm very pleased with the pension records I received. Thanks!

Civil War record & War of 1812
Bob does an amazing job getting the records accurately and quickly. Ive been able to break through some brick walls in my genealogy using these military records. The stories these documents hold are intense and revealing of how our ancestors lives really were. Thank you Gopher records!!! I will be reaching out again!

Quick and Clean
I submitted my order just before Christmas and I didn't expect any response for weeks. But I received back my scanned file shortly after New Years. Despite the age of these documents the scans were clear and very readable. I am very happy with the result.

Above and beyond
I have had two Civil War pension orders with Bob at Gopher Records. On both of them there were some hiccups, and Bob went above and beyond the call of duty in getting the records for me. I highly recommend him and his excellent price.

My Order #3 On 1/8/24
I was very pleased to receive this product, which was the remnant from a previous order in 12/23 that has been delayed due to miscommunication between MYSELF & NARA. The patience demonstrated by Gopher Records in searching for a lost CMSR file and retrieving a Civil War pension file was most impressive. Through my three orders (so far) with Gopher Records, I have learned to trust their abilities over the previous experiences which I have had with NARA staff.

This is the second time we have requested information.
We were very pleased with the response time both occurrences.
Been pleased with the information found. I have found answers to a lot of questions.
I have already and will continue to spread the good word for you.

So Fast!
Bob was so helpful and professional! I had the records I requested well before the estimated delivery date. The price was amazing for how quickly I received the documents. Will definitely be using this service again! Thank you!

Excellent
Wonderful experience working with Gopher Records. While I waited 6 months for NARA to deliver a requested document package, Bob Velke of Gopher Records completed a document request for me in a week and a half. Not only that, but he was instrumental in breaking the log jam on my NARA request, otherwise I believe I would not have received it in 6 months and probably would still be waiting. His personal service was outstanding. I can’t imagine going through NARA in the future when a service like Gopher Records is available.

Great Service!
Ordered Two Land Entry Case Files! Turnaround time was great as well as the price! I will be writing about the info I found in an upcoming blog post to my genealogy blog. Highly recommend Gopher Records if you need documents from NARA.
