If you have family in Bradford on Avon 4 generations ago there may be a link to my line, my maternal grandfather x5 was born there, I have that line traced back to 1500 in Wiltshire and there are several lines of descendants in England, Wales, US and Australia.
Let me know when you start adding your profiles from then and I see if I can find a link.
There is no need to apologise for being a newbie, we all were new once and the great thing with WikiTree is the help you get from other members.
Your paternal side being Davies you are not going to be short of possibles, trying to get them to probables is the difficult task. My own Davies line only goes back four generations before things are very cloudy. What region are your ancestors from?

VERY IMPORTANT:
The more documents, sources, dates, and locations you provide on the profiles you create, the stronger your branches and our mutual global tree will be. If you don't know the correct date, please estimate using before or after.
Thank you for helping in our mission to build a global tree with only ONE profile per person.
A few employees and a whole lot of volunteers are working together to create a FREE global family tree with only one profile per person. If you'd like to help us by adding your family branches or help to grow the tree in some other way, please select the volunteer button and leave a statement informing us of your interest in our project.
Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.
Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page. Mags
