From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Merarites
      the descendants of Merari (Num. 26:57). They with the
      Gershonites and the Kohathites had charge of the tabernacle,
      which they had to carry from place to place (Num. 3:20, 33-37;
      4:29-33). In the distribution of the oxen and waggons offered by
      the princes (Num. 7), Moses gave twice as many to the Merarites
      (four waggons and eight oxen) as he gave to the Gershonites,
      because the latter had to carry only the lighter furniture of
      the tabernacle, such as the curtains, hangings, etc., while the
      former had to carry the heavier portion, as the boards, bars,
      sockets, pillars, etc., and consequently needed a greater supply
      of oxen and waggons. This is a coincidence illustrative of the
      truth of the narrative. Their place in marching and in the camp
      was on the north of the tabernacle. The Merarites afterwards
      took part with the other Levitical families in the various
      functions of their office (1 Chr. 23:6, 21-23; 2 Chr. 29:12,
      13). Twelve cities with their suburbs were assigned to them
      (Josh. 21:7, 34-40).
