Henry Steers

Henry Steers (1779 Dartmouth, England - 1852 New York, USA) was a prominent nineteenth-century American shipbuilder of English descent, and the ancestor of a line of important businessmen in various boatbuilding and maritime construction concerns.
Born "Henry Steer" in Dartmouth, England in 1779, Steers apprenticed for 7 years for Newman of New Quay to learn his trade. He was afterwards connected the Construction Department of the Royal Naval Dockyards at Plymouth till 1815. Steers married Ann Rich in 1803, and they had thirteen children together, including a daughter Ann Steer who remained in England, and a son Henry Torring Steer. At some point, Henry began to spell the surname "Steers" and that usage has continued in the family to this day. Two of Henry's sons, James and George, followed in the business and later became well known for building many ships in Greenpoint, Long Island, and New York City.
==Isle of Guernsey==
After his work in Plymouth, Steers moved to the Isle of Guernsey, and built two privateers for the French government there. His friend John Thomas had gone to the United States and obtained a position in the Washington Navy yard, and wrote to Steers to join him there. Steers accepted the invitation.〔(History of New York ship yards, John Harrison Morrison, Press of W.F. Sametz & Co., 1909 )〕
