I've used Gopher a couple of times to get military related information on ancestors and been super satisfied. I requested the whole thing and got back literally over a hundred pages of items on each person I've selected. And what I found was more than I had anticipated. Pension records especially contained information such as descriptions, copies of documents, and family connections that I hadn't thought about getting through military records. It was great. Bob is very helpful and prompt when I've submitted requests. Was kind enough even to make a change when I discovered [...]

Gopher Records provided fast, efficient service and found exactly what I was looking for. Bob answered my questions patiently and helpfully, and I couldn't be happier with the service. Thank you!

I first learned about Gopher Records through Dick Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter. For years I had wanted to visit NARA myself and get copies of my ancestors' pension files. But years went by and I never got there. When I read about Gopher Records, I decided this was my chance. So far I have ordered 5 pension files and 2 service records. Bob and his team did not disappoint! The images are very clear and the information has definitely helped further my research. In fact, one of the pension files is the [...]

I’ve ordered and promptly received Civil War records for 2 ancestors. Gopher provides a valuable service for those researching Civil War soldiers.

Excellent service!! Found me what I was looking for in record time! More affordable than NARA.

Service was quick and accurate. I appreciate the work and fast turn around.

The records retrieved by Gopher Records are fantastic! The pension file contained 304 pages and I received digital copies of them all. The genealogical information I'm extracting is very helpful with my research and I will be using Gopher Records again very soon!

I just wanted to say that Gopher Records did a fantastic job getting the records for my second great grandfather's Civil War invalid pension, and blasted thru a brick wall that I had no idea how to deal with. Bob V made this also easy and stayed in touch the whole way. He even removed charges for files I requested when he said his basic research showed there weren't any of that type. He had over 100 pages of records turned around in less than two weeks and helped me understand the process. I will [...]

This was my second information request to Gopher Records and once again it was a job well done! These records were available to me in one week. Thanks for a great job and keep up the good work. I would highly recommend Gopher services to anyone seeking records from the National Archives.

I am so glad someone gave me GopherRecords for getting information from the National Archives!!! Gopher delivery of files can be described as a nanosecond compared to NARA's service. The copies are clear, the website is easy to navigate, the prices are super reasonable, and communication with Gopher is outstanding. Every genealogist should use this service and tell all their friends about it.
