In 2233, Lieutenant Commander George Kirk[2] was the first officer[1] of the U.S.S. Kelvin NCC-0514 under Captain Richard Robau.[2] Kirk was married to another Starfleet officer, Winona (Davis) Kirk, and they had two sons, George Samuel[3] and James Tiberius. Born in Riverside, Iowa,[1] in 2201,[4] Kirk was the son of Tiberius Kirk, whose name he felt was "the worst."[2]
In 2242, six months into the construction[5] of the NX-0002, which would be commissioned three years later as the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701,[6] Captain Robert April took the ship's empty hull on a secret mission to retrieve a lost colony vessel, the S.S. Rosenberg, which was trapped in an ion storm. April hand-picked a command crew he could trust, including his oldest friend George Kirk and April's future wife, Sarah Poole. While underway, sabotage threw the Enterprise into the Romulan Neutral Zone, and nearly sparked another war with the Romulan Star Empire. With some assistance from a defecting Romulan, April and Kirk managed to defuse the situation and rescue the colonists.[5]
In 2265,[7] George was in attendance when his son James assumed command of the Enterprise[2] on Stardate 1278.4.[8]
