History

Sherwood was originally called Mosely, and under the latter name was platted in 1899. It was later renamed Sherwood when the post office was established.[2]

gollark: > I don't really like the term of "respect", because people use it to mean so many different often mutually exclusive things based on convenience then equivocate them in weird ways; in my experience it's mostly authority figures demanding that I "respect" them, and they generally mean that I should be subservient to them in some way.
