Bhargav (alt. Bhargava) Brahmins are ancient Vedic Brahmins who are descendants of Muni Bhargav]] (alt. Bhrigu Rishi). A Sanskrit saying states that Bhrugu jaayate iti Bhargava, which means that all those born of Bhrigu are Bhargavas. While there is some agreement on the "descendants of Bhrigu" part, there is no information available after say Jamadagni (Bhrigu - Chyavan - Apnavan - Richika - Jamadagni - Parshuram).
