Normanskil refers to a location in Albany County, the word "kil" means creek. I read somewhere that the creek was named the Normanskill because the Bradt family settled there. The first Bradts were brothers; Arent Andriesz de Noorman [Bradt] & Albert Andriesz de Noorman /Van Fredrikstad from Norway __ thus Norman or "North Man"
The following is some Springer info from the Schenectady site;
"Springer
