Merrill, Mississippi

Merrill is an unincorporated community in George County, Mississippi, United States. Prior to the creation of George County, Merrill was located in Greene County.

A post office operated under the name Merrill from 1898 to 1960.

The Merrill Bridge is the oldest still-intact bridge over the Pascagoula River. The bridge was built in 1928 and was the first bridge to cross the Pascagoula. It replaced a ferry that previously operated on the site. The bridge is now closed to traffic and is listed as a Mississippi Landmark. However, foot traffic is welcome on the bridge. The confluence of the Leaf River and Chickasawhay River can be seen north of the bridge.
