From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Merab       increase, the eldest of Saul's two daughters (1 Sam. 14:49). She       was betrothed to David after his victory over Goliath, but does       not seem to have entered heartily into this arrangement (18:2,       17, 19). She was at length, however, married to Adriel of       Abel-Meholah, a town in the Jordan valley, about 10 miles south       of Bethshean, with whom the house of Saul maintained alliance.       She had five sons, who were all put to death by the Gibeonites       on the hill of Gibeah (2 Sam. 21:8).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Meribah       quarrel or strife. (1.) One of the names given by Moses to the       fountain in the desert of Sin, near Rephidim, which issued from       the rock in Horeb, which he smote by the divine command,       "because of the chiding of the children of Israel" (Ex. 17:1-7).       It was also called Massah (q.v.). It was probably in Wady       Feiran, near Mount Serbal.                (2.) Another fountain having a similar origin in the desert of       Zin, near to Kadesh (Num. 27:14). The two places are mentioned       together in Deut. 33:8. Some think the one place is called by       the two names (Ps. 81:7). In smiting the rock at this place       Moses showed the same impatience as the people (Num. 20:10-12).       This took place near the close of the wanderings in the desert       (Num. 20:1-24; Deut. 32:51).
