Two brothers, orphans, George and Thomas Geer were sent from England to America by an unscrupulous uncle, appointed their guardian, determined to retain their estate for his own. They arrived in Boston in 1635 without friends or money. George was about 14 years old; brother Thomas, about 9.
Not until 1651 does George's name appear in the records as one of the earliest settlers in New London, Connecticut. Thomas resided in Salem, Mass. until at least 1676.
