Flavius Josephus is the historical evidence for the existence of Jesus, as, to my knowledge, we have none other excepting religious documents. As to whether Jesus' mother was a virgin before the conception of Jesus, the only person who'd have a clue is herself: it isn't even something a husband can reliably determine.
My original point was that you can disbelieve that it was a virginal birth without disbelieving anything else in the Gospels, just as you can disbelieve that every firstborn child in Egypt died on one night except those of the Hebrews, and believe that they actually left Egypt. You can disbelieve that the Red Sea was parted, and you can believe the Israelites survived Pharaoh's army.
