MOREHEADCY prefixes in area code 252
NANPA records 21 assigned NXX blocks to rate center MOREHEADCY in area code 252, 3.0% of the 695 blocks assigned in the code.

The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-24 and the most recent 2022-12-20. 14 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
