@6WhiteBoomers I dunno, we still have a few. Master refers to men under the age of 18 when they become Mister. Miss is for unmarried females of any age. When they get married they become Mrs. Ms is a female title which is not linked to marital status and can be used by anyone, but it does seem to be used by divorced women most commonly.
Originally Master was only for the eldest sibling and the others didn't have titles, but you'll often see in literature Young Master for the younger sibling
Yay for the English class system!
