Greenwood is an old cemetery with lots of, could be, unmarked graves or missing headstones. It's in the northeast part of Wise County. All we found are on the web page http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~drycreek/greenwood.htm Indian Creek Cemetery is over in Tarrant County, to the south of Wise County. All we have is a link to a story about that cemetery. We have the following Bowman headstones in Wise County: (don't see any at Greenwood Cemetery) Cemetery # Last Name First Name Born Date of Death Other Information Chico 914 Bowman Ann Mar 2, 1848 Dec 20, 1923Wife of J.W.
