The Carlson family is the family of Carl Carlson. Carl was adopted by Carl Carlson, Sr. and Sigrin Siguðardóttir in Reykjavík, Iceland. His biological father was a cowboy named Wyatt.

The Carlsons are from Iceland. A thousand years ago, the Carlsons served as watchmen on the coast of Iceland, keeping their eyes out for invading hordes. However, when an invasion came, the Carlsons not only let it happen, as everyone had expected, they actually joined in with the slaughter of their countrymen. This part was kept secret, with the page it was written on removed from the saga that chronicled the event.

Since this event, the Carlsons believed the story to be false and insisted their ancestors had fought bravely against the invaders. Centuries later, Carl Carlson, Sr. and Sigrin Siguðardóttir adopted a son who they named Carl Carlson...

Carl Carlson, Sr. is the adoptive father of Carl Carlson.

After Carl and his friends won the Springfield Lottery, Carl took all the money and left to go back to Iceland. He planned to buy the missing page of his family's saga and clear the family name. While in Reykjavík, Carl stayed with his parents at 22 Hjorleifsstræti. After Carl bought the missing page, Homer, Lenny, and Moe tracked him down and took the page off him, as they felt like they were also owners of it since it was bought with their money. The three then translated the page and found that the Carlsons not only let the invasion happen, they also took part in it. After finding this out, they decided to instead tell everyone of all the good deeds Carl had done for them. The locals then decided to forgive the Carlson family and Carl Sr. and Sigrin were embraced into the community.
