Fantastic Service

Great communication and quick record retrieval! You won’t be disappointed!

Fast & fantastic price!

I got my ancestor’s records from the Civil War much faster & cheaper than I would have through NARA- thanks again!

Civil War Records

Great service! Quick turnaround and clear copies emailed to me. I highly recommend Gopher records!

Civil War Service Records

Recently received copies of my 3X great grandfathers Service Records from his time in the Civil War. He used an Alias re enlisting a 2nd time in a different state & it was very confusing, these documents definitely helped me to lay out a timeline to see some of the possible reasons he did things and how he ended up serving in a New York regiment after having started in Detroit, Michigan. Couldn't be happier with the service GopherRecords provides. It is reasonably priced & the documents are priceless. I have recommended your company numerous times & will continue [...]

Pleasant Surprises

I'd heard of Gopher Records and was interested in trying it out. So I submitted a request for my great-great grandfather's Civil War records just to give the service a test. I already had a fair amount of information and just wanted to see what they might come up with. They came back with a treasure trove of previously unknown information about not only him but his through wife and family through the pension records. The process is quick and easy. Loved it and will definitely be using it again.

“…everything but toilet paper and bananas”

To quote Allison Janey's character of the 1994 remake of "Miracle on 34th Street," "“I’m coming here for everything but toilet paper and bananas.” I'm so glad I discovered Gopher Records. I received the CMSRs I ordered ahead of the estimated time I would receive them, and they were so clear! I can finally read everything in my ancestor's military service record! I also got a discount for joining the free membership, so it was very reasonably priced. And I had a question separate from my first Gopher Records order, so I emailed the team, and they answered my question [...]

The single best record sight I’ve used!

I was very very impressed when it was emphasized on what NOT to buy because I can get it for free. Or being warned that the one I ordered may not be mine. I've already posted on several sites how much I love them! I've used the 3x One of those times I decided to wait because we were unsure if we had the right person. If you use one site for military records use this one.

Great service and info from Gopher Records

This is a one stop place for all records relating to your descendants from the Military. All records are very concise and readable. Great and fast service.

The best way to get NARA Civil War Records

For my line with many men of the same name, Alfred Ridge is a son of Thomas Ridge, I thought an unmarried man's records could name siblings and parents. As a beginner, this was a daunting task and closures from Covid made it impossible. When I saw Gopher mentioned in a Facebook chat group it seemed like the answer. And it was, 52 pages worth! His injuries led to an extensive medical record with testimonials from many people because his doctor died. Who knew. Just a single page has descriptions, dates, living situation, and multiple locations. As the only [...]
