Can anyone tell me anything about Hustwitt family.

This is what I have - Alice Hustwitt 1862 maried Florence McCarthy 1862 - her fathers name was Richard Hustwitt c1830 - don't have mothers name or a clue as to where they came from. We believe they lived in North London somewhere.

Florence and Alice went onto have 6 children.

Would like to know who Alices mother was and where she came from and where did her father come from.
Is Hustwitt English? -
if not where did it come from?
Can you help?

Thanks and regards
karen

Think the missing 'Martha Ann' on 1857 marriage could be Martha Ann Dorset (looking at the original on Ancestry)

This appears to be Richard in 1841. His family are all from Middlesex.

Will take me some time to get through checking this lot!!!

Only thing is where does the name Hustwitt come from? The family story is that it is Jewish, could this be possible?
