Sareni was supposedly first founded by a member of the Bais clan named Sarang Sah.[3] It was first made headquarters of a pargana and tehsil during the reign of Saadat Ali Khan (which one is not specified in the source).[3] Previously, the pargana had been part of four different mahals: Kahanjara, Nisgar, Deorakh, and Tara Singhaur.[3]

At the turn of the 20th century, Sareni had a police station, a post office, a cattle pound, and a large primary school.[3] It was held in taluqdari tenure by the Rana of Khajurgaon, as part of the Murarmau estate.[3] The population in 1901 was 1,458, including a Muslim minority of 202.[3]
