They’re is the contraction for they are.
-
They’re related to a prominent New England family.
-
They’re not sure which candidate they’re going to hire.
Their is a possessive pronoun.
-
Their patience is waning.
-
Their main concern is their lack of funds.
There is used for everything else, such as:
-
There are two qualified candidates.
-
Your next appointment is waiting in there.
-
