1851
HO107/2076
George Smith, 33, police officer, b Whitbourne, Herefordshire (indexed as Whibona)
Isabella S, 30, wife, b East Indies
Mary S, 10, dau, b Pershore, Worcs
George S, 9, son, b Bretforton, Worcs
James S, 4, son, b Brailes, Warwicks

This is good news because the police records are often excellent.
I have an ancestor who was in the police at the same time and the record dept came up with his entire career + a photograph of him taken in the 1860s.

You asked for births. You could order the certificates online.

James Smith
Dec 1846
Shipston on Stour  11 410  (covers Brailes)

George Smith
IGI: bap 27 Mar 1842 Bretforton, Worcs, son of George and Mary Smith
Mar 1842 
Evesham 18 374
(although I noticed a George Smith registered in Jun 1842 Shipston-on-Stour)

Mary Smith
There are three Mary Smiths b Jun 1840 in Pershore (see freebmd.org)

Apart from approaching the Mercia police to ask about their records, this site may have something on when they lived in Bretforton:

Unfortunately the Whitbourne baptisms are not on the IGI so you will have to contact the Herefordshire record office.

There are some old Thomas Smiths in the early censuses (including a 77 year-old one living in Whitbourne in 1851) but there is no way of telling whether they are yours.
