It looks as though the Williams' first child may have been registered as Richard Henry Williams, Sep qtr 1907 Shoreditch.

So perhaps he was Dick?

And may even have had a younger brother Albert/Bert (b1916)?

Yes!!  I think we can trace "Dick" to Australia.

A tree on Ancestry has Richard Henry Williams b 1907 son of Richard Henry Williams/Charlotte Dutton marrying a Mary Ellen O'Connor in Queensland in 1929 and dying in NSW on Christmas Eve 1969.

Don't rely on other detail in that tree, which looks rather confused as to dates and places on the English side of things :o. And they give him an additional middle name of Llewellyn for which the source is not clear.

BUT they do attach an image of the 1929 Queensland marriage certificate showing the groom as Richard Henry Williams, 21, a cook, parents Richard Henry (engineer) and Charlotte nee Dutton.  All very promising.

1950 electoral roll:

64 Mildmay Grove: Lottie Williams (and others)

66 Mildmay Grove: George E and Winifred M Williams (and others).

I do truly love Electoral rolls - if they're ever fully OCR'd and indexed, they'll be even better.
