Gopher Records puts NARA to shame! Within less than two weeks Gopher Records delivered the 253 page long pension application file full of information and other family documents.

Extremely quick and easy. Reasonable prices. Can’t wait to order more. Where do I start?!?! Thank you!

I wanted to order records of my 2nd great grandfather's service. What Gopher found was not only his records, but the tale of a new wife and her subsequent husband and his service. Its more entertaining than a soap opera to read! I was so happy to receive it - he was super fast and answered all my questions in a timely manner. I will definitely be ordering more files from him when I find my next Civil War ancestor. I would highly recommend Gopher records to anyone seeking their files.

I am so glad I took the chance and ordered a pension file through Gopher Records. I had ordered a different pension file from the National Archives before, and it took many, many months before I got the results back. Gopher Records charged much less and got me clear digital copies of the file within a week! Downloading the file was easy too. I will definitely use Gopher Records again if I the need arises and can honestly recommend their service without any reservations.

Gopher Records provided very high-quality scans of two complete Civil War pension applications. The image quality, price, and fast work were all very impressive. I highly recommend them.

I can’t express enough appreciation for the courteous, prompt and affordable service provided by Gopher Records. I have received both the military service record and the veteran’s Civil War pension file for this soldier, and each were filled with nuggets of valuable new information. For those of you who have located a pension record index for a soldier you are researching, let me tell you this: the pension file may be your best tool of the year to unearth new knowledge and to chip away at your brick wall. Mine was filled with affidavits and eye witness accounts—and even [...]

The folks at gopher records recovered the pension application submitted by Shiloh Basford’s parents. Their application tells a story of Shiloh’s life and the life is his parents in Bath County, Kentucky. What I like about gopher records is how personable they are. I appreciate that I can go back again and again to retrieve files. I recommend Gopher Records.

Bob has been so helpful in my search for my Civil War Ancestors! His website is also a wealth of knowledge and helped me find even more! He even took the time to text me a photo from the NARA file so I had it in high resolution. I can't recommend Gopher Records enough and am so thankful to have found them. Thank you Bob!

I tried Gopher Records for the first time to obtain my relative's Civil War Pension File. I was blown away by their customer service. First...they did not charge me anything until they found a file. Second, I received the file within a couple of days...not months. I had over 80+ pages from them. I had questions about the records, and they answered ALL of my emails, and I sent a multitude of questions. They also answered my inquiries via the Civil War Facebook Group. I recommend Gopher Records 100%. I will use [...]

I got the records for 2 of the 3 ancestors I requested records for within 10 days! (May have been less, I didn't keep track of time) That compared to the MONTHS I waited when I ordered from another company. I had some questions and Bob CALLED me on the phone, personally, to walk me through my questions!! Talk about Customer Service! I highly recommend Gopher Records!
