The Ewing family is the core family of the American prime time soap opera Dallas and its 2012 revival, as well as the foundation of the spin-off series Knots Landing. In the original series of Dallas, the Ewings owned and ran Southfork Ranch and the oil giant Ewing Oil; in the revival series, Ewing Oil is replaced by Ewing Global, formerly Ewing Energies. Knots Landing featured the large corporation of Gary Ewing Enterprises.

Characters in bold have appeared on the revival series.

The parents of brothers Jason and Jock Ewing, names unknown. (died)

Although the generations of the Ewing family beyond Jock and Jason have not been referred to in the series, Miss Ellie's family - the Southworths - is somewhat more explored.

Enoch Southworth founded Southfork Ranch in 1858. Following Enoch's death in 1901, his sole child, Aaron, born in the 1870s, had Southfork Ranch signed over to him and carried on his daddy's legacy. Aaron and his wife Barbara had two children: son Garrison, and daughter Eleanor, who eventually became known as Miss Ellie. Miss Ellie was the sweetheart of Willard "Digger" Barnes in the first half of the 1930s. In 1936, Miss Ellie married Jock Ewing, who helped Aaron save the Southfork ranch from bankruptcy. Aaron died in 1959, and Garrison in 1979. Garrison dated and later married Cherie Simmons (in the TV Movie The Early Years), but it is unknown if the couple had any children, so it's presumed the Southworth family name became extinct with his death.

Ewing Oil is a fictional oil company from the television series Dallas.

Soaring upward from the Dallas skyline, the Ewing Oil building is right up there, at fifty stories, with the Republic Bank and Reunion Tower. It is the home of Ewing Oil, the Ewing family owned and operated corporation. The executive offices are on the top floor, where for decades the Ewings had Dallas at their feet.
