Greenwood Cemetery is privately owned non-denominational cemetery located at 3020 Oak Grove Avenue in the Uptown neighborhood of Dallas, Texas.

[1] Founded in 1875 as the Trinity Cemetery, the first burial was a Mrs. Susan Bradford that March.

[2][3] At the time of its founding, the cemetery was out of town and surrounded by farmland.

By 1896, the cemetery had fallen into disrepair with one local noting: "The fence is down in twenty places, cattle roam all over the graves and wagons use the main street as a common thoroughfare.

"[citation needed] This prompted the formation of the Greenwood Cemetery Association,[4] which took over the maintenance and operation of the cemetery and gave it its current name.
