Well, the Gods and Goddesses of Mount Olympus are the grandchildren of:

Mother Earth[Gaea] and Father Heaven[Ouranos].

Their children include the Cyclops, Hekatokheirs and Titans.

The Titans Cronos [Lord of Universe] and Rhea [Queen of Universe] had children.

All of them were swallowed by Cronos except for Zeus who Rhea managed to save.

Zeus dethroned Cronos and freed his 4 siblings starting a war between the titans and gods/goddesses. [Titans against 5 siblings + Iapetus(Promethues)]

First 5 Siblings: Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hestia, Hades

These are the original '12 Olympians':

Zeus: Lord of Sky

Hera: Protector of Marriage, Protector of Heroes [Zeus's sister + Wife]

Poseidon: Ruler of Sea [Zeus's Brother]

Hades: Ruler of Underworld; God of Wealth, God of Dead [Zeus's Brother]

Hestia: Goddess of the Hearth, [Zeus's Sister]

Pallas Athena: Goddess of City, Battle goddess, Protector of Civilized Life, Protector of handicrafts, Protector of agriculture [Daughter of Zeus(From Head)]

Phoebus Apollo: Master Musician, Lord of Silver Bow, Archer God, Far-Shooter, The Healer, God of Light, God of Truth [Son of Zeus and Leto, Artemis's Twin Brother]

Artemis: Lady of Wild Things, Huntsman-in-Chief, Protector of Dewy Youth, 'Moon', Refered to as Hecate: 3 forms - Selene in Sky. Artemis on Earth. Hecate in lower world. Hecate: Goddess of the Dark Moon, Deeds of Darkness, Goddess of the Crossways. [Daughter of Zeus and Leto, Apollo's Twin sister]

Aphrodite: Goddess of Love and Beauty, [Daughter of Zeus and Dione; Later said to have sprung from sea]

Hermes: Messenger God, Master Thief, God of Commerce and Market, Protector of Traders, [Son of Zeus and Maia]

Ares: God of War, [Son of Zeus and Hera]

Hephaestus: God of Fire, Worker of the Immortals - Their Armorer and Smith, God of Ceremony, Protector of Smiths [Son of Hera and (maybe)Zeus]
