In briefanswer capsule

Son of Thráin I. Once Thráin had settled at Erebor as King under the Mountain and discovered the Arkenstone, Thorin I abandoned that realm for the distant north. He entered the Grey Mountains, then a meeting place for the greater part of Durin’s people, valued for mineral wealth and sparse prior survey. Dragons dwelt in the wilds beyond those heights.
