Let’s cross Gary off the list because he doesn’t want Southfork. JR would have turned Southfork into an oil field the first chance he got and Miss Ellie knew it. But on the other hand, JR’s son has Ewing AND Southworth blood in his veins. That used to be VERY important to Miss Ellie. She knows that Bobby would run the ranch the same way it’s always been run, BUT unlike JR, Bobby didn’t have a son that’s related by blood to will it to. Was Miss Ellie OK with that?  Her giving the ranch to Bobby, where does that leave John Ross. That should have been JR’s argument. New Dallas catches a lot of criticism, but this  is one thing it kind of corrected. No offense to Christopher, but John Ross has more of a birthright to Southfork.</blockquote>
