Poosie Nansie's Tavern, Mauchline, Scotland, famous Robbie Burns Association
Poosie Nansie, Wife of George Gibson, and the owner of a Mauchline tavern much frequented by beggars and 'gangrel bodies'. It was this Inn in the Cowgate which Burns visited, and where the revels which inspired 'The Jolly Beggars' took place. Agnes Wilson was employed as a servant by them. They had a son, Jock, and a half-witted daughter, known as 'Racer Jess', because of her speed in running errands. Poosie Nansie's is still an Inn.
