Couldn't be happier with everything I have recieved in a timely manner from Bob and the team at Gopher Records! They make the ordering process fast and simple and my records were sent in less than a week. Thank you Bob and team!

Absolutely pleased with the customer service, final product, and cost. Gopher sends you document copies that are true to the original - not the photocopies supplied by the Archives itself - and, best of all, for far less money. I HIGHLY recommend.

I used Gopher Records to locate medical records for my 2nd great grandfather in the Civil War. Two days after I submitted the request I received 3 documents indicating where he was treated during the war! Thank you Gopher Records for your fast service!

I ordered a Civil War pension record and could not be more pleased with the service. I was able to see status updates while my order was being processed and received my order much faster than quoted. Thank you Gopher Records for this invaluable service!

Great experience with Gopher Records. After I entered in my information, I received a response back almost immediately with options and pricing. I ordered court martial records and Civil War records. Within a week I had the records in my inbox. I definitely recommend Gopher Records and will be suing them again!

I’ve used Gopher Records both for my personal research and when working with clients, and they’ve been excellent every time. Ordering directly through NARA was effective, but the wait times were lengthy and the cost was high. Gopher not only charged affordable rates, but also delivered faster than their original estimate. I appreciate that they’re upfront about what they can provide and only bill you for what you actually receive. Their team was responsive, professional, and thorough—keeping me updated throughout the process and delivering exactly what I needed more quickly than expected.

Great service and great website. I appreciate that customers are only charged after the available record type is known. I was surprised how quickly I received the records as well. Will definitely use Gopher Records again.

I am working on a genealogy brick wall and realized a Civil War pension application may have information I needed. I saw that it could take months to get the files directly from NARA. Bob & Gopher Records had my files to me in less than a week. I appreciated the status updates, Bob provided throughout the process. In sum, this is an extremely professional organization that delivers exactly what they tell you they will, faster than expected, at a reasonable price. I wish more businesses were run this way.

I highly recommend using Gopher Records for your record retrieval needs. Bob has gone above and beyond to help me secure files for my genealogical research. The details contained in my orders are invaluable!

I found 4 unknown volumes of civil war records for a western NC regiment at NARA. NARA informed me they did not copy the records, and my traveling there to review them wasn't feasible. I contacted Gopher Records to see what options I had. They copied Volume I for me, all 212 pages. The quality is superb and probably more important, they communicated with me! A rarity in this day. The cost was much less than me driving there, staying over and learning the system. I would recommend them for any [...]
