There's only one Digley burial in Basford on my disc; Ann Digley, 1811.
There's the burial of Daniel Diggle, householder, on 19 May 1768; the only other one I can see for Phoebe Diggle was in 1834 (no age given)

The only one of these 4 burials that is represented on the FHS discis Phoebe:

9 Jan 1785  Phoebe Diggle  Daughter of Johnson  (who I think was aka William Johnson Diggle)


But I would think it likely that if this Phoebe was someone's wife, she would have been described in the reigster as that rather than as someone's daughter.

How sure are you of any of those dates? It's been suggested previously that Sarah may have been buried in 1827 and not 10 years earlier, as there's no burial to match the earlier date. I can't see anything in the papers about her death, though I acknowledge that it may be there, I just haven't found it!

I am a bit puzzled. Why do you think that this 15th century birth "possibly" repersents your ancestor?How on earth can you consider that if, by your reckoning, there are eight unknown generations unaccounted for?

I'm looking at my tree, and 8 generations back from me takes me to births in the late 1600s - mid 1700s (where I've been able to trace back that far - most of my paternal brickwalls occur before I can go back 8 generations, and that's despite all the resources available).  So to me, your query is similar to the idea that I could select someone with my surname who was born 3 centuries ago and decide that they are one of my ancestors.

Or perhaps there is more to your reasoning that this? In which case I apologise, but perhaps you need to lay out what evidence you may have so that people can make valid suggestions.

FreeBMD has the death of Joseph Herwood Street (dob 27 Oct 1892) in q1 1974 in Swansea.

I can't see any other Street in Swansea so although details don't match exactly, it might be worth checking this out.
