I have requested several USCT Civil War Pension files through Gopher Records and the service and turnaround time has been exceptional, not to mention the rates. Several of my colleagues have used the service to request Civil War pension files as well. I have not heard any unfavorable feedback regarding the service from Gopher Records.

The records we ordered were complete, comprehensive and delivered in the time specified. The value was better than any other service. I highly recommend Gopher Records

Thank you for providing this in-depth pension file of a soldier serving our country from 1854-1878. The information gleaned within this file will help to acquire his VA soldier recognition headstone at the poor farm cemetery at Milwaukee County Grounds.

Records arrive in reasonably time; prices feel affordable; and image quality is superb. Put those three things together, and I'm asking myself which pension file I'm going to order next. 🙂

I ordered my 2nd grand uncle's pension file on August 2nd. I received the file on Aug 15th. Amazing, considering Gopher Records had to get special permission to pull the file as my 2nd grand uncle's file - Harlow, as it was combined with another soldier's file. My goal was to learn more about my paternal side, brick wall at my 3rd great grandfather, father to my 2nd grand grandfather (James) & his brother (Harlow) who served. I received 451 pages of documents, testimonies and statements. Took me a while to learn how [...]

Gopher Records was recommended to me by someone who has used it frequently. She helped me try to find the pension record in other places and when we both came up "dry," she suggested Gopher. The 86-page file was copied and sent to me in less than two weeks. Amazing service. I have already recommended Gopher to others I knew who also research military records. Thanks for a job well done.

Great experience. Would highly recommend Gopher for anyone seeking documents from the National Archives.

High quality color document images in half the time it takes from the National Archives. And at a lower price.

I highly recommend the services of Gopher Records! The service is quick, the document is very clear and it is always a joy to be able to have such a goldmine of genealogical information received so fast! One of the documents I received was well worth the cost: it contained a transcription of the family bible that listed the 13 siblings of the soldier (the oldest being born in 1814). If I had been at NARA, I would have been expelled from the reading room. I could scream all I want in the comfort of my home when I opened [...]

Ordered the Soldier’s Bundle and was quite pleased. Received the files in 5 days and there was so much more than I expected. Customer service was excellent and I was well informed about the process. Can’t recommend them enough. I’ll use Gopher for all my genealogy searches without any hesitation.
