MAISENHALTER: perhaps from Meise (titmouse) and Halter (holder); migth have originated as one of the rather funny-sounding names given to Jews such as Rosenzweig (rose twig), Wasserstein (water stone), Katzenberg (cat hill), etc. HAUSMANN: house husband (probably suggesting husbandry, ie good economical management).
