When Mennonites settled the East Reserve in what is now the Rural Municipality of Hanover, farms were set up in small villages with communally-owned pasturelands and individually-owned fields arranged in long narrow farmsteads. The village of Reinfeld was established in 1875.

The Reinfeld cemetery is found in a field, unkept and surrounded by wooden fence poles. No gravestones were found during a 2020 site visit. (Source: Manitoba Historical Society [Adapted])

A part of the story of the town and its inhabitants from the early days of European settlement through roughly 2009 is told in the volume "Settlers Of The East Reserve". A digital version of this and many other Manitoba local history books can be found online in the University of Manitoba Digital Collections. There is also a list of such books organized by district and town name on the Manitoba Historical Society's website on their page entitled "Finding Aid: Manitoba Local History Books".
