I'm posting a different version of the 1911 (from FMP) - look at Mr Cowper, age 75. He's stated as being the father-in-law, which would make him Harriett's father. His name is definitely Cowper on the original. Wasn't she described as Cooper on one of the marriage records?

COWANS Wm Head Married M 46 1865 Miner Coal Hewer Durham Bishop Auckland
COWANS Mrs Wife Married 25 years F 45 1866 Monmouthshire
COWANS, S Son Single M 21 1890 Miner Coal Hewer Durham West Cornforth
COWANS, J T Son Single M 17 1894 Miner Putter Durham Coxhoe
COWANS, D Son Single M 12 1899 Durham West Cornforth
COWANS, Sylvia Daughter F 3 1908 Durham East Howle
COWPER, J Father In Law Widower M 75 1836 Coal Hewer Retired Scotland ***
GREGORY, Mary J Servant Single F 21 1890 Domestic Servant Sunderland
HUDSON, R Boarder Single M 45 1866 Sinker Pit Middlebrough
