The parish registers survive from 1546 and, apart from the volumes currently in use, are kept at Northamptonshire Record Office.

Rev James Jackson, who was vicar of the parish for 35 years starting in 1735, compiled an index to Brixworth families from the commencement of the registers. This work was largely arranged by families and included information from his personal knowledge as well as entries from the registers. Only a few entries were added after Jackson died in 1770. The index therefore includes extensive information about the origins and destinations of people who arrived at or migrated from Brixworth during the early and middle parts of the 18th century. This manuscript is also kept at NRO, where its reference is "ML 380". Further details of this source appear in
