Wentworth family
Around 1955, right after Pamela Barnes was born, Digger Barnes's wife Rebecca fled Dallas and was presumed dead. In 1981 she returned to Texas as Rebecca Wentworth, wife of rich businessman Herbert Wentworth with whom she had a biological daughter Katherine Wentworth. Soon after Herbert died due to terminal disease and Rebecca reconciled with her children Cliff and Pam and introduced them to their half-sister Katherine. In turn of events, Rebecca's plane crashed in 1983 ("Crash of '83") and she died in Dallas Memorial. In her will, she left her huge Wentworth fortune to her children Cliff, Pam and Katherine. Katherine fled the country to Europe in 1984 after being wanted for attempted murder. In 1987, Pamela left Dallas after her car accident making her son Christopher sole heir of her Barnes-Wentworth Oil share along with Cliff.

Barnes-Wentworth Oil, formerly Wade Luce Oil, is a fictional oil company from the television series Dallas.
In 1982, Rebecca Wentworth bought the Wade Luce Oil company from retiring oilman Wade Luce in an effort to help her son, Cliff Barnes fight J.R. Ewing.
Cliff hired Sly Lovegreen to spy at Ewing Oil as J.R.'s secretary. She fed him information on pending deals at Ewing Oil, and Cliff managed to pull several profitable deals out from under him. J.R. eventually discovered the plot and turned the tables on Cliff feeding him useless information and nearly bankrupting Barnes-Wentworth.
Cliff later sold Barnes-Wentworth to Jeremy Wendell, but in the continuation, the company was still owned by Cliff, who diversified the company and it became a multi billion dollar conglomerate.

Ewing Global is a fictional company on the updated version of Dallas. Formerly Barnes Global, it is owed by Cliff Barnes, his daughter Pamela (with husband John Ross Ewing), and Cliff's nephew Christopher Ewing. Cliff is currently being represented by his hired proxy Elena Ramos (an ex friend and significant other of both John Ross Ewing & Christopher Ewing).
Between the old version of Dallas and the newer version Dallas, Cliff Barnes built a multibillion dollar conglomerate, consisting of over a hundred companies in over fifty countries, out of Barnes-Wentworth Oil, the company his mother had purchased back in 1982.
Bobby (Cliff's former brother-in-law), John Ross (Cliff's current son-in-law) and Christopher (Cliff's nephew and former son-in-law) find a financial report on Barnes Global that J.R. Ewing had, revealing Cliff's mother started the company and gave Cliff, Pam, and Katherine each one-third ownership. Katherine died and left her share to Cliff, which he later ceded to his daughter Pamela Rebecca. Meanwhile, Pam left Dallas in 1988 still owning her third of the company, with her son Christopher as a potential heir. With his mother missing since he was 7, Christopher seeks to declare Pam legally dead to inherit his mother's share of Barnes Global as a means of protecting Ewing Energies. Investigation initiated by J.R., however, reveals the likelihood of Pam living under the alias of Patricia Barrett in Zurich, Switzerland.
