A good primer on forms of address in Elizabeth's court is here http://www.elizabethan.org/compendium/13.html It is a little different than what the SCA uses it seems. I know I get confused, having learned the above info as a courtier in renfaire, then having to learn the SCA's titles.

Mistress Blanche (she is given that title in letters to her and about her during her lifetime which is an interesting item of SCA type information - that Mistress could be considered a proper title for a highly placed and born woman.)
