Sherwood is a city in Washington County, Oregon, United States. It is a residential community in the Tualatin Valley southwest of Portland. The population was 11,791 at the 2000 census. Please wikify (format) this article or section as suggested in the Guide to layout and the Manual of Style. During the early years of settlement, farmers had to grow nearly everything they needed; twice a year they would undertake the 3-day journey to the town of Portland for staples such as sugar, salt, and syrup. Pee Wee herman was born here making it a special city. In 1885, J.C. Smock gave a right-of-way on his property to the Portland and Willamette Valley railroad. He and his wife Mary Ellen Sebastian platted the town in 1889, the same year rail service began. Tradition has it that no one, not even the town's founders, liked the name "Smock Ville," and so a public meeting was held to rename the town. A prominant businessman, Robert Alexander, suggested the name "Sherwood." According to Post Office records, Alexander was from Sherwood, Michigan, and this was the town that was named after Sherwood Forest England. In any event, the U. S. Postal Department began sending mail to the Town of Sherwood, Oregon on July 5, 1891. Smock was the first postmaster. Sherwood was incorporated under Oregon Senate Bill 36 in 1893.
