Images of some of the parish registers were posted briefly on the Family Search Record Search site mid-2010, but quickly disappeared.  It is unknown when they might reappear on the Historic Records Collection of Family Search.org.

The parish registers of baptisms, banns, marriages, and burials are extant beginning in 1701.  Earlier records were apparently lost and are not known to exist.  There are a few Bishops Transcripts dating back to 1675, but coverage is not complete.  Phillimores marriage transcripts cover 1701-1812.  The Cornwall Family History Society has published the marriages 1701-1812, the marriages 1813-1837, and the burials 1813-1837.   All parish registers (baptisms, marriages, and burials) from 1813-1911 have been transcribed  and posted on the database of the Cornwall Online Parish Clerks.  These are indexed and searchable on that website without cost.

Non-conformist records are also available at the Cornwall Record Office, and transcriptions are available on CD from commercial sources, including Cornwall Legacy.  Both Wesleyan Methodists and Bible Christian adherents lived in the parish, but jurisdictions do not follow Anglican boundary lines.  Most records are to be found in the Bodmin Wesleyan Circuit, the Bodmin Bible Christian Circuit, and the Liskeard Bible Christian Circuit, although baptisms were occasionally perfomed by someone farther afield, especially among the Bible Christians.  There have been non-conformist chapels in the hamlets of Millpool and Fletchers Bridge, as well as Cardinham.  The Methodist Chapel at Millpool holds regular services, while no services are currently being held in the chapel at Cardinham village, and the chapel building at Fletchers Bridge has passed into private hands. Some records of the Methodist congregations are in the LDS Family History Library catalogue.
