Ok I've been trying to tie the disparate threads of Sam's family together to make it all make sense.

Here's what I've got:

Sam has a father named Paul Wilson. Paul was a reverend who was killed stopping a gang fight. Paul was originally said to have been killed when Sam was 9 (Captain America 277). Later this was changed to 16 (Avengers vol 3 64). Later again this was changed to 14 (all new Captain America 1).

Sam's mother Darlene Wilson was killed from a mugger. Originally in Cap 277 it appeared to be several years later when she was killed (as Sam was a teenager). Later it was changed to 2 years later. Then to one year later.

Sam has a younger sister named Sarah Wilson Casper. After the death of her unnamed husband her son Jody got into trouble with the mob but Cap vouched for him in front of a judge and from then on Jody turned his life around. Recently Sarah has an (as far as I can tell) unnamed daughter (all new Captain America 3).

Sam had another nephew named Jim Wilson. Jim Wilson was a sidekick of the Hulk and later died from AIDS.

Now the tricky part...Sam also has at least one brother.

The Gamma Corps limited series introduced Jim's father Gideon Wilson. I'm not sure if the writer realized this made Falcon Mr. Gideon's brother but it did. He probably did know as both Gideon and his father Paul are ministers. Anyways Gideon blames the Hulk for the death of his son even though he son died of AIDS. Gideon's wife is shown but I don't think we learn her name.

Now the writer of the All New Captain America has been showing flashbacks of Sam and his siblings during their childhood. The thing is Gideon should be the oldest sibling not Sam. Sam mentions he raised his brother and sister...going by Mr. Gideon's age Gideon should be the one who raised Sam and Sarah after Paul and Darlene's death.

So either Gideon is the one raising the siblings or there is a fourth Wilson sibling. Maybe Gideon was in college and it fell to Sam to raise Sarah and this unnamed brother.
