In briefanswer capsule

Borin was Thrór's father's brother. When Durin's Folk left the Grey Mountains in large numbers, Thrór, heir of Dáin, made for Erebor again with Borin and those still remaining, while Grór, son of Dáin, led many to the Iron Hills. Thrór set the Arkenstone in the Great Hall of Thráin. At Erebor the Dwarves thrived by fine arms, armour, and craft, by ore exchange with Iron Hills kin, and by friendship with nearby Men; Northmen between Celduin and Carnen grew strong, and the halls knew plenty, feasts, and song.
