Fredrik and Lotten adopted and raised Elsa Margareta "Margit" Uppling, who was the first daughter of their eldest son, Kalle.
Fredrik and Lotten also adopted and raised a boy, known as "Amerika Gösta", and he can be seen in several family photos. At this time, his biological parents are unknown. Family tradition says that he left for America as a young man and was never heard of again. That is why he is called "Amerika Gösta."
