Looks like the boys weren't twins after all, they had the wrong age for William on the 1901. They seem to be children of Sarah's sister Eliza Ann who married a Townsend.
1891 census
42 Justice St., Belgrave, leicestershire
Richard Townsend, head, 27, shoe rivetter, born Leicester
Eliza Ann, wife, 24, born Leicester
Albert Edw'd, son, 2, born Leicester
