California widow: A married woman whose husband is away from her for any extended period
In the Navy they were called West Pac[ific] widows. The West Pac widows are generally thought to cheat on their husbands while they are out on deployment.

Since the topic is usage, may I point out that the headline should be "18 obsolete words that never should have gone out of style"?

“Master” was the biggest loss.
It used to be Miss/Mrs. and Master/Mr.
When Master disappeared, the system became unbalanced, and paved the way for Ms.
Now Mr. has no meaning, so it is disappearing from usage. Miss has disappeared, since it’s perceived as patronizing. Mrs. and Ms. aren’t far behind.
