I now believe my great grandfather MARTIN FICKS/FIKS/FIX (1874-1915) may have had 6 siblings:

1-REGINA FIX (married HENRY BIKO/BEKO in North Dakota)

2-SHAM/SCHAMEL/SAMUEL ? FIX and ELIZABET (some children were HULDA born abt. 1895-97, ANN abt. 1888, KONRAD abt 1890)

3-JOHAN/JOHANNES (born abt. 1854) and son JOHAN (born abt. 1881)
-may have gone to Canada

4-unknown FIKS/FIX and wife MARIA (born abt 1877- children BERTO/ALBERT? born abt 1895-97 and ALMA abt 1897-99)

5-GEORGE FIX and AUGUSTE LEIMERT (children ADOLPH born July 13, 1884 and CARL born Dec. 5, 1882 in Russia)

6-JOSEPH FIX and EMILY SCHACTER (daughter OLGA born Sept. 7, 1881)

There may be more or someone above may be a cousin. If you think you are related, please contact me. Part of this family seems to have disappeared. They sometimes said they were born in US, Russia, Germany, Poland- so you never know if you've got the right family. MARTIN and the first 4 names on the list are connected because they met each other at the docks in NY and Philadelphia and lived at the same address briefly in Philadelphia . The last 2 names were in the same Russian villages my great grandma and grandma came from.
