I placed an order for a few Civil War records from NARA and I was more than pleasantly surprised at how quickly they were able to copy my records and send them to me. I will absolutely use them again. Thank you thank you thank you!

Fast, reasonable, and accurate. What more could you want? I have used this service several times and will keep coming back.

I am extremely pleased with the Service Gopher Records has provided. The price is good and the service is excellent. They provided exactly what I was looking for and very quickly. The service was easy to access and to follow their directions. My great-mother was married to a soldier in the 1st United States Colored Heavy Artillery. He died of smallpox in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in 1866, before being discharged. It was remarkable to read my great grandmother's own words in her deposition. Since then I have taken an interest in the entire regiment. [...]

My first experience with Gopher Records was exceptional! Records were returned in a timely fashion at a very reasonable price. The pension record claims for the veteran and subsequently, his widow, were comprised of many pages with priceless information! I will certainly use Gopher Records again!

Having ordered records directly from NARA, I am always amazed at how quickly Gopher Records can send me my documents. They are the best!

Bob at Gopher Records was incredibly helpful. I requested the records of a Civil War soldier and he filled the order promptly. He kept me informed about part of the request that could not be fulfilled because of mold on the documents. Gopher Records does an excellent job at scanning the records and their prices are fair. I've done research in the National Archives and if you are looking to get records, it's much easier to use Gopher Records than to travel to DC.

If I could I'd give this company a 10 star rating! Several years ago I ordered NARA records from another company claiming to be fast and inexpensive. I didn't get all of the documents I originally ordered AND it took them MONTHS and a great many emails, phone calls, etc to even get the records. I was hesitant to try again but, hey, it's a different company. I could not be more pleased with Gopher Records!! I ordered service records for my Great Grandfather, my Great Great Grandfather and a Great Great Uncle. In less than a week Gopher Records [...]

There's not enough good things I can say about Gopher records. They are thorough, easy to work with and knowledgeable about the record sets they work with. Not to mention the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended!

I have used Gopher Records 7 times and will use again in the future. The orderiing process is easy, pricing affordable and records quick to arrive. The records have given me a glimpse into the lives of these ancestors and have filled in some blanks. I highly recomment their services for any genealogy enthusiast! Their customer service is outstanding!

About 40 years ago I ordered and received the Civil War records and pension files for my Great Grandfather. Based on a comment on Facebook for a genealogy group that I joined, it was recommended that I try again using Gopher Records. I gave it a try since the original files received were missing pages and the copies Gopher provides are in color. Jackpot! I received more pages and more answers using their service and it was actually very close to the price I paid some 40 years ago. They were fast, efficient, responsive [...]
