The majority of the surnames you list are not familiar to me as Searcy Co surnames, although by ca 1930 they could be there. And the Morning Star located in Searcy Co isn't even a wide spot in the road, but does have a big, blue water tower. There are four locations in Arkansas called Morning Star. This information comes from the Delorme Arkansas Atlas and Gazetteer http://www.delorme.com. 1. Morning Star, Greene Co AR, is slightly east of Paragould - a fair-sized city. 2. Morning Star, Searcy Co AR, is north of Marshall on RT 27 - a tiny little community - not even a town. 3. Morning Star, Garland Co AR, is slightly east of Hot Springs - a large city. 4. Morning Star, Phillips Co AR, is north of Elaine, a little west of the Mississippi River, southwest of Helena - a tiny little place. Hope this helps you figure out which Morning Star you're looking for.
