Yes. Unlike "ms," "Mrs." is a real abbreviation. It is short for "mistress," and since mistress has an unpleasant connotation we slur it in speech to sound like "missiz." The plural is mesdames, or Mmes. Since 'Ms' exists, it is real, and since it is an abbreviation, it is a real abbreviation!

No, it is not. Miss refers to an unmarried woman, and missus is the long form of "mrs.", which refers to a married woman. Both derive from "mistress", but refer to a different marital status. Ms. (pronounced "miz") refers to any woman, and does not reflect her marital status. It is particularly appropriate when a woman's marital status is unknown or she is older and unmarried for any reason.
