Neither of us will find out until we get to heaven, assuming we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
We don't have to wait that long on this one. The Bible clearly states that Mary was the mother of at least 2 other men and names them. It isn't an interpretation issue.

They could be Joseph's from an earlier marriage. In the Old Testament the original Joseph was sold by his "brothers", although only Benjamin was a son of Rachel.
If they were Mary's sons they died between that passage and the crucifixion and it wasn't important enough to mention in any of the Gospels.

Something similar to this was posted a couple days ago, but specifically in reference to Jude.
Jude 1:1 states that he is the brother of James.
Matthew 27:55-56 tells us about the women who follow Jesus to the cross.
Mary Magdalene was one, Mary the mother of James (the less) and Joseph was another, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee, James (the Great) and John.
If we read further in Matthew 27:59-61, we see an account of the Mary's who go to Jesus' tomb.
These are the same two Mary's who were at the foot of the cross in verses 55-56, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, the mother of James the Less and Joseph.
In the Gospel of John, we get another piece of evidence of who Mary, mother of James the Less and Joseph, was.
John 19:25 says she is the sister of Mary (Jesus' mom) and the wife of Clopas.
So James the Less and Joseph are the sons of Clopas and Mary of Clopas. Jude was a brother of James the Less. Therefore, Jude was a first cousin of Jesus, since his mother and Jesus' mother were sisters.
Who is the other named son of Mary that you're referencing?
