Gopher Records was fast in response to my requests and was very thorough in what they sent to me and have low rates! I highly recommend using their service!

The records I ordered were delivered SO FAST and the quality of the documents was great. I placed an order with NARA weeks before I placed an order with Gopher Records. I am still waiting on the records from NARA, but I already got the records I ordered from you!! Definitely using Gopher Records from now on.

I recently ordered four land entry case files after not receiving the order I placed with a different records retrieval service. My experience with Gopher Records was wonderful! Ordering was straightforward, with an estimated timeline for when I might expect my order. My order arrived well in advance of that estimated delivery date. Although the records I requested weren't as useful in my research as I had hoped, it was an overall excellent experience utilizing Gopher Records for obtaining records from the National Archives. They obviously take pride in their professional service, which I [...]

Oh my gosh! Gopher records is SO speedy, and VERY thorough. I ordered a civil war pension file and paid the standard price of $45. The file turned out to be over 300 pages. If I had ordered from NARA, it would have taken forever to receive it and it would have cost me over $220. I can’t recommend Gopher Records highly enough!

I had been hearing about Gopher Records for awhile now and the wonderful results they were getting. Finally several weeks I decided to place an order myself with them. 1st I want to say is that you are not asked to pay until the records are found. I was quite impressed with that. I have a subscription to Fold3 and one grandfather they found a little more, but not a whole lot…..but I was shocked at the size of my 2nd grandfather’s file. For example in his pension file it had all of his handwritten letters thru out the [...]

My experience with Gopher Records was excellent from start to finish. I needed a bit of clarification before submitting my order and Bob Velke answered quickly. I placed my order and was impressed that my payment would not be required until the requested records were found. The records were located and sent immediately upon payment. I had some difficulty in downloading them and I emailed Gopher. Bob went above and beyond by calling me to help me access the records. The extensive records have provided many insights into the history of my great grandfather. I am still [...]

I requested a pension file for a Civil War sailor and within two days, it was ready for download! Fast and excellent service! Highly recommend!

Purchased gift certificate & used later when I had time to fill out the application. Very fast results..Very happy with the copies of documents received.. Hadn't ordered before due to potential expense and wanting more info on my Civil War ancestor before applying.. I've been enthusiastically recommending gopher records to others. Thanks for what you do.

Thank you for the superior job you did in researching my two Civil War soldiers. All the documents you furnished established a timeline from their mustering into the Army of the Potomac following through till their discharges. It was a very interesting read and gave a good idea about their time in service. The added bonus was the widow who applied for a pension for herself and minor child after the war. She was unknown to me. Thank you again Gopher Records!

I have been thrilled with the service from GopherRecords! When I first looked at ordering pension records I looked at the National Archives first and it seemed very daunting as well as very expensive! The process through GopherRecords is so easy to use and you don't get charged unless they find the file you are requesting! Thank you so much!
