My GGGG Grandparents Thomas and Ann Cowap apparently lived next to Harriet E. (Cowap) and Joseph Priestley in 1861 - the two families appear on the same page of the 1861 UK Census.(My GG Grandmother Annie Cowap also happened to be there on the Census day). This does not seem to be the case in 1871 - both families are still in Preston but are found several pages apart on the census.
Thomas Cowap was born in about 1797, his son Henry John Cowap(my GGG grandfather) was born in 1822 so perhaps Henry John might be an older sibling of Harriet. Ann, wife of Thomas, was, I believe, was Ann Dodd born about 1799. I have only recently been looking into the Cowap branch so I have not yet sorted out relationships.
There were other Cowap familes in the area so while I suspect all were related it is not clear how.
I would be happy to exchange any info that helps.
How did you find out they were buried at Daresbury Church?
Thanks Steve Lynch
