Mrs. comes from "Mistress," which is what a married woman would have been called in 18th/19th centuries.
"Missus" probably evolved from it. Can't be sure. I'm not a scholar.
Hope I've answered the question.
Best wishes,
Mistress Eustace, Dublin, Ireland
The present tense, third-person singular of to miss(someone) is indeed spelled misses. The other meanings of the word use the same conjugations : I miss, you miss, he or she or it misses.(The only variant is the slang word missus, a spoken form of Mrs.)
Misses
The plural form of "misses" is "misses," so it remains the same whether referring to Mrs. Puno and Mrs. Salvador or multiple women who are married or "misses."

Mister is abbreviated as "Mr." and Misses is abbreviated as "Mrs." For an unmarried woman, the abbreviation is "Ms."
yes. it's short for Mister and Misses
Both the noun and verb forms are spelled "miss". It is only capitalized when preceding a proper name, or as a title (e.g. Junior Miss). The state name (abbreviated MS or Miss.) is spelled Mississippi.
If you were writing a letter to 2 female, unmarried siblings, you could address the envelope "The Misses Smith"
Ms. is pronounced "Miss" and Mrs. is pronounced "Misses". You pronounce "Ms" as "Miz" and pronounce "Mrs" as "Miss-es"
