  1. Yes, your husbands nationality, and your visa in the UK make no difference in other European nations. you can use the site below. Fill in the blanks and click for the info to get info for each country you want to enter.
  2. You travel on your personal passport. Your Spouse visa is for the UK only. The UK is not part of the Schengen open borders agreement, so you cannot travel in the schengen area on your UK visa. You also cannot travel southern ireland without a visa, even though there is open border under the CTA (Common Travel Area) agreement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Travel_Area http://www.citizensinformation.ie/categories/moving-country/moving-abroad/freedom-of-movement-within-the-eu/common_travel_area_between_ireland_and_the_UK http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/ecg/commontravelarea Once you have a visa for the one Schengen EEA country you will spend most of your time in (or if not main country, the country you will enter first), you can travel throughout the other countries of the schengen area also. NB as you are the spouse of an EEA national, the Visa is free. You may however be asked to pay an admin free (usually 24 pounds). Not all Embassy's charge this fee, Although many embasseys use VFS global to process their visa's, some still let you apply direct as an EEA national.
