About Merced County
The county derives its name from the Merced River, or El Río de Nuestra Señora de la Mercedes (River of Our Lady of Mercy); named in 1806 by an expedition headed by Gabriel Moraga, which came upon it at the end of a hot dusty ride. Merced County was formed in 1855 from parts of Mariposa County.
