Request completely satisfied

Very prompt and, as far as one can ever determine, thorough examination of the records requested. I received the files much sooner than I had anticipated, which gave me time to review them to determine the pertinent ancestry before a trip planned for further research. A tricky twist was the fact that the records appear under several different spellings, as was common among the Irish 150+ years ago. Value received for the money spent, so I can heartily recommend this service for records pertaining to the American Civil War at least.

Excellent

Fast and reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again.

Satisfied 9 times

Nine files I have requested and each time Gopher Records has produced surprising results. I am learning that the the past wars for this country affected not just a single soldier it affected entire families. I have been requesting not just my direct line soldiers but also the brothers, uncles, and all who served in each family. This company produces quality work with continued followup on each request until the request is completed. I'll be sending more requests for all the wars they can research.

Order #010270

Excellent! Easy order and very quick return time.

Four brothers serving in CW

Thank you very much for this vital information. These men spelled their names four different ways and had to jump through a few hoops to verify their individual service. Because of this I have found the names of two siblings that I previously did not know and birthdates. Regrettably these siblings did not appear in the 1850/1860 census. Additionally I have the death date of their father as it appeared in their mothers pension request.

CW Pension Records

Received my 6 Pension records very quickly and cheaper than NARA. Digital images were perfect. Thanks for the great job!

Outstanding customer service!

I highly recommend using Gopher Records for your record retrieval needs. Bob has gone above and beyond to help me secure files for my genealogical research. The details contained in my orders are invaluable!

Photocopy of Civil War Records

I found 4 unknown volumes of civil war records for a western NC regiment at NARA. NARA informed me they did not copy the records, and my traveling there to review them wasn't feasible. I contacted Gopher Records to see what options I had. They copied Volume I for me, all 212 pages. The quality is superb and probably more important, they communicated with me! A rarity in this day. The cost was much less than me driving there, staying over and learning the system. I would recommend them for any [...]

Homestead File

I needed a homestead file real quick to help me solve a family mystery. The file just provide more questions than answers. But I still couldn't believe how great the service was. Thank you!

Awesome Service!

I recently used Gopher records to find service, medical and pension records for my 2nd great grandfather, who was in the civil war. The information and files they found for me was truly astounding! I knew his name, wife, and unit he served in, Gopher did the rest..The records they found for me put all the pieces together and brought my 2nd great grandfather ‘back to life’, and what a life it was! I would recommend this service to anyone who is researching their family.
