Search More Hovels is an Alliance-only quest for level 10-30 in Wetlands. It is step 14 of 40 in the Wetlands storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Wetlands at 13.9, 34.8. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 3,100 experience and money.
This grouping of murloc hovels, after a thorough inspection, reveals nothing.
...but you're certain that the next clue you find will be fruitful.
One of the hovels to the north must have the Menethil statuette!

You cannot get the followup quest if you have completed the equivalent quest before Cataclysm. (I don't know the link to the former quest, sorry) I just spoke to a GM about the issue. He told me that I had already completed the quest before cataclysm hit. He explaned to me that they took the old quest and made it to the last part of this questline. So theoretically you completed the last part of the quest chain before the other quests. Sounds funny and to me is very odd storywise but technically it makes sense to me. I hope this information is useful to others.
So I just completed this quest and the barrel I had to search didn't give me another quest to continue searching. My friend said he had this exact same problem too...
Confirmed. The half-buried barrel did not offer the follow-up quest. Have a ticket in about it.

You thoroughly search this cluster of murloc hovels, and find no trace of the Menethil statuette. Perhaps one of the two nearby hovels to the north and northeast will have more clues.

<After pulling the barrel free from the muck and opening it, a silvery figurine is found packed in fine straw. It depicts a young, long-haired paladin with hammer upraised. This must be the Menethil statuette! You must now return it to Karl Boran in Menethil Harbor.>
