Clark Family 94 Lumley Street Grangemouth 1901 Maggie & Nellie Missing Sisters

[NZfindScots]

Margaret (Maggie) Clark 1883 and Helen (Nellie) possibly McCallum middle name Clark 1889. These two sisters disappeared into marriage, servitude or died!
The rest of the family moved to New Zealand including Mother Helen Clark nee McCallum. We would love to find out what happened to our Pops sisters. William father died 1897, brothers William (Bill),  James, Henry (Harry), Neil and Duncan and one sister Janet came to New Zealand and lived in Auckland.
Neil (McCallum) Clark appears on the Grangemouth War Memorial as he died in Belgium and was still considered a son of Grangemouth. The family also lived in Union Place 1891.
We hope that Maggie and Nellie did live, marry and have children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Any help even if it is bad news would be appreciated.

Helen may have died too - there is a death of a Helen McCallum Clark, aged 19, in Polmont, Stirlingshire in 1907.

That result is from a search of the statutory death registrations, 1891-1964, Stirlingshire only, on the ScotlandsPeople website. You can view and download a copy of the death registration there too which should confirm or otherwise that this is the right Helen (father and mother's name on death registration usually). Searches can be done after 1964, in batches of five years, but records are not viewable online due to data protection. 

You can buy 30 ScotlandsPeople credits for £7 sterling. It then costs 1 credit to view search results at index level and 5 credits to view the full record.

  Thank you so much to those who replied, you have solved a mystery for us! I was hoping at least one sister had lived and stayed in Scotland and had children, as our family is pretty thin on the ground over there. If anybody can add anything about this family it would be much appreciated.
