Tracy: If you look at Ike's "About" (Full Profile view), then at the Revisions tab, you can see that *you* added Ike's profile with SmartCopy.
Using the "Research" link (which searches MyHeritage), there is a WW-I draft registration with the same mm/dd, but a year earlier birth (1878) ... but that just puts him "in conflict" with a different sibling (as far as being "too close" in births) -- and doesn't help with parents. The image of the registration does provide a nearest relative (probably wife) of Viola Hirsch. https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10513-11833236/ike-hirsc... ... and that is in Connecticut.
There is an "Ike Hirsh" (note spelling difference) with a different date in the same 1879 year, also with a WW-I draft registration in Iowa, so don't confuse the two in your research. (Let alone the Isaac's and other variations.)
Interestingly, FindAGrave also has an Ike Hirsch in Arlington National Cemetery (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/126297387/ike-hirsch) with a wife Josephine V. Hirsch -- maybe Josephine Viola ?
... I found that using SmartCopy's "search other sites" (i.e. invoke SmartCopy while "sitting on" the Geni profile of a person ... CTRL-click (Mac: CMD-click) the options to open in other tabs.
There are a number of FamilySearch records for an 1879 "Ike Hirsch" of New Jersey, also with a wife Josephine, so that is likely to be the same one in Arlington ... one result is a New Jersey 1905 census where an Ike was in the military but listed as living with a Herman family ... maybe parents died by then? I also saw this probable birth record reference (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:FC2R-DN1), but the image of the birth document is restricted in access, so one can't readily see parent's names; date & location seem to match, though.
If you are confident in the birth dates of the other siblings, I'd venture that this is a different Hirsch branch which belongs with this Ike.
