Shortly after Valentine Cartwright's death, the Wichita, Anthony and Salt Plains Railroad was established and tracks were laid which passed through Waco township. The first station stop traveling southwest from Wichita was named Oatville. As time passed, a small town of the same name grew up in the vicinity and the cemetery, by now a public burial ground, was called the Oatville Cemetery for the first half of the 20th century. (The Wichita, Anthony and Salt Plains Railroad later became part of the Missouri Pacific railroad system).
By the late 1940's, the cemetery was formerly known as Greenwood Cemetery, the name still in use.
