Mercury (Hermes) was son of the union between Zeus and Maia. There is nothing mentioned in poems and songs about his brothers and sisters (if there were any) but he did have half-brothers and half-sisters because Zeus was his father. In this way, Apollo, Ares Athena and many of the other Olympians were his brothers and sisters. You can read much more about his adventures with the family of the Olympians in "Hermes the Olympian" a book available on Amazon.com.
