Mistress is an old form of address for a woman. It implies "lady of the house", especially a woman who is head of a household.<br />
<br />
An example is Mistress Quickly in Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor. The title did not necessarily distinguish between married and unmarried women.<br />
<br />
The title Mrs. is an abbreviation of Mistress, and the titles Miss and Ms. are also derived from it.
