Can't see them. Isabella was born in New York according to the 1850 US census (searchable and viewable on Familysearch).  George is recorded as a little younger than his true age, but it must be the right family.

Charleston, South Carolina,
George Oates, 55, Bookseller, b. England,
Frances ", 54, b. England,
Henry T ", 26, Bookseller, b. England,
Edward, 24, Clerk, b. England,
Isabella, 19, b. New York.

Alan.
Northumberland - Smith, Willis,
Durham - Rogerson, Child
Cumberland - Irving, Hill
North Yorkshire - Layfield,
Ireland - Collins

Hello Alan

That was interesting as the daughter Frances was not listed although the mother Frances was; it may be that Frances is in England. 

Is there anyway of sending you an attachment of a will as you may be able yto work out what Isabella and Frances married names are as per the following from Thomas Oates Will.

my nephews and nieces hereinafter named who may be living at the death of my said wife that is to say George Oates Frances ? (formerly Frances Oates spinster) Isabella ? (formerly Isabella Oates Spinster) Elizabeth the widow of Edward Oates (formerly Elizabeth Leighton Spinster) the said Frank Weaver in addition to the said legacy of fifty pounds herewithfore given to him; George ? Mary ? Ellen Jackson (?) (formerly Ellen ? Spinster) Harriet ? (formerly Harriet ? Spinster) John ? Susan Dracott Mary Ann Leighton Fanny Leighton Charlotte Leighton Charlotte Sanderson

I've seen bits of documents posted on here, but I'm not sure how to do it.

This looks like Frances and Isabella in Sheffield in 1851 census,

Broom Parade, Ecclesall Bierlow, Sheffield,
Frances Oates, Visitor, 61, Mar, Wife of Music Seller, b. Deptford, Kent,
Isabella M. Oates, Visitor, 23, Unm, b. United States.
