Godwin recorded John Disney's death on 26.12.1816 and all references up to this point are correctly coded as referring to him. This identification can also be confirmed by looking at the radical/Unitarian context of Godwin's meetings with Disney, which often include Thomas Brand Hollis (about whom Disney published a Memoir in 1808), Theophilus Lindsey and Joseph Clayton Jennings.
The one later reference to Disney at a dinner at George White's in 1832 might be John's son, also John, who has a DNB entry, but there is no way to confirm this and as he only appears once, and there are other candidates. Therefore, it has not been coded.
