I'm 5'11" and rode a 21" for a while, so the 19" your husband has should be more than rideable. As far as your bike... Check your standover height (feet on the floor, body in front of the seat), is there enough room between your womanly part + bike (should be at the very minimal 1", preferable more)?
Actually, that's also interesting, what's your inseam?
