I've had a great experience with Gopher Records. They are professional, efficient, communicative, and the fees are very reasonable. My documents were delivered in a timely fashion and it was easy to both order and download them from their site. I also appreciate them for accessing records that I physically can't research since I don't live nearby. I highly recommend using this service!

I highly recommend Gopher Records, as they have quick turn around time to get any archival records from the National Archives and Records Administration. Further, the records retrieval included exceptionally high quality images for a great price. If you are thinking about ordering older archival records, do not hestitate, as Gopher Records provides great quality copies.

Great, prompt service. Always professional. Downloads are quick and easy. I wish I found five years ago!

Whenever I need a pension or other military record from the National Archives, Gopher Records comes through quickly and at a great price. I recently received a 127 page pension file from the Old Wars I ordered in just a few days. Highly recommend this service.

After reading reviews on social media genealogy sites, I ordered from Gopher Records for myself. The reviews I read did not lie. Bob was professional and courteous in his email. I was super impressed with the speed the records were researched and then shared with me. Great digital copies of the records to read. Because of the work Bob did, I was able to confirm some family legends and have more information about my Civil War veteran ancestors. I'm already trying to figure out which Civil War ancestor's pension record I want to order next from Gopher Records!

I've recently ordered two Civil War or later pension files from NARA through Gopher. Very quick service, great customer contact emails, extremely low price. The scans were high quality and complete. I'd highly recommend them even if you live near DC, you'll spend more time getting to NARA, waiting for records to be pulled, going through the files. Just use Gopher!

As always, Gopher delivers fast, accurate, and worthwhile documentation. Wouldn’t dream of using any other service! Cheers!

We ordered a widow's pension application for an ancestor's service in the Cherokee War in Georgia. Some of the information from this file (beautiful color images by Gopher Records!) helped fill in gaps in these ancestors' lives and is the only place some of that information can now be found, (e.g., marriage information from a burned county) and the maiden name of the soldier's widow, which blew what we thought we knew about her right out the window.

The staff of Gopher always do a fine job. I've had them look up several of my CW ancestors and their searches never fail. They are definitely worth every $ I've spent and look forward to working with them again.

I searched for Civil War records on the normal sites including Fold3 and was only able to come up with a couple documents. Gopher Records was able to come up with complete and comprehensive documents!! I emailed a request on the weekend and received an email saying they received it with an estimated of time of completion. Beyond my expectations. What’s nice is you only get charged for what they actually can find. I cannot recommend them highly enough for helping you with your military record searches.
