Hi Kim
Son William born 1859, looks to have married Elizabeth McKinnon in 1882 in Old Kilpatrick, Dunbarton (ref 501 / 53).
I think this is them in 1891:
William Clark 32 Rivetter b. Glasgow
Elizabeth Clark 32 b. Glasgow
Ellen Clark 7 b. Old Kilpatrick, Yoker
Robert Clark 7 b. Old Kilpatrick
Alexander Clark 3 b. Glasgow
William Clark 5 months b. Glasgow
Address 9 Lyon Street , Glasgow/Milton
By 1911, the family look to be in Ireland. Address showing as 118 East Bread Street (Pottinger (part of), Down. See www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai002198812/
From the family's entry in 1911 and going by the birth places and ages for the younger children, the Clarks look to have been in Ireland pre 1901.

This looks to be the youngest's birth, Isabella, in 1902 on the Irish registers. If you haven't viewed images on there before, just add your name, tick the box for agree and the captcha box https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1902/01925/1745797.pdf
Also, daughter Ruth's entry in 1896 https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1896/02153/1816775.pdf

Some of the transcripts are on ancestry
Have you checked that the boys weren't living with McCormick relatives in 1891
I notice the family had Michael McCormick a labourer age 66 living with them in 1871
Was he Mary's father ? (2nd son named after him ) .
[quote author =berleyclay link=topic=878277.msg7503385#msg7503385 date=1700662900]Just be glad it's only £1.50 lost.
Thanks cd it’s so frustrating and costly!!
It might be worth looking for all in any military records. I think during the time you cannot locate these men we were fighting the Boar War.
Some of these soldiers did stay behind in South Africa to live. (I have one in my family that did just that).
The 1891 has an entry for Robert & he's living with brothers Alexander & John & sister Margaret?
Your post says you can't find them after 1881?
There is a William Clark born 1860 Glasgow on the English 1911 - have you already ruled him out?
