As per Side by Sides of the World by Charles E. Carder there was a Springfiled Arms Co.
"It was a trade name used on Cresent Fire Arms Co double shotguns until about 1920 or 1921. This trade name was used by J. Stevens Arms Co. after 1920."
It sounds as though this company produced private label firearms for a number of different retailers and was bought out by Stevens. Don't know if they are related to Springfileld firearms or just have a similar name (common practice back then).
Harley has the rundown on Cresent Fire Arms Co.
