Northmen is quite a vague term since there was, in the Third Age, many sub-divisions that could trace their ancestries to the original groups of Edain who decided to settle in Rhovanion and about the Vales of Anduin during the journey West towards Beleriand.
We have the Wood Men, Beorn's people; the Lake Men and people from Dale etc. (Turin)

Turin. If I recall correctly, it is even said in one place that the Éothéod, the ancestors of the Rohirrim, were closer related to the Men of Dale than to those of Gondor.
