I think Thomas Smith marries an Hannah Whitehall and some of children shown on bcc as Benjamin and Ruth children are actually Thomas and Hannah's children

Freereg marriage :-
St. Thomas Dudley 6/8/1837
Thomas Smith bach. Mason Netherton father Benjamin Smith Boat Loader
Hannah Whitehall sp. Darby Hand father Joseph Whitehall Nailer
Witnesses Samuel Robinson and Mary Ann Robinson

Note witnesses are same as for sister Leah Smith marriage

I can only see Leah and William as other children for Benjamin and Ruth?
