Rhys Meurug (Anglicised: Rice Merrick) (died 1586), was a Welsh genealogist, historian and landed gentleman.
Meurug served as Clerk of the Peace in Glamorgan, having been appointed by the earl of Pembroke.
This third part may be more substantially preserved in Edward Llwyd's manuscripts, written by Meurug c. 1584, though this is not certain.
Meurug collaborated with the historian Sir Edward Stradling while writing his book.
[3] He is also known to Dafydd Benwyn and Sils ap Sion, who both sang elegies to Rhys Meurug.
