Unoquha: typo
'''Robert Jousie''' or '''Joussie" or ''Jowsie" (floruit 1580-1635) was a Scottish merchant, financier, and courtier.
Jousie was a merchant based in Edinburgh with a house on the High Street or [[Royal Mile]]. He became an exclusive supplier of fabrics to [[James VI of Scotland]].
Partnered with the goldsmith and financier [[Thomas Foulis]], James VI sent him to London in July 1589 to buy clothes and ornaments in preparation for his marriage to [[Anne of Denmark]]. James gave them a pledge of two cut rubies and three cabochon rubies set in gold "chattons" or buttons from the crown jewels for these purchases.<ref>''Calendar State Papers Scotland'', vol. 10 (Edinburgh, 1936), no. 154: David Masson, ''Register of the Privy Council of Scotland, 1585–1592'', vol. 4 (Edinburgh, 1881), p. 421.</ref>
In 1590 Sir [[William Keith of Delny]], out-going Keeper of the Royal Wardrobe, paid Jousie 10,000 Scottish merks for silk fabrics already supplied to the king.<ref>Maria Hayward, ''Stuart Style'' (Yale, 2020), p. 163.</ref>
Robert Jousie supplied textiles to [[James VI of Scotland]] and [[Anne of Denmark]]. He supplied the tailors working for the Keeper of the wardrobe [[George Home, 1st Earl of Dunbar]] in the 1590s.<ref>Maria Hayward, ''Stuart Style'' (Yale, 2020), pp. 53-4.</ref> Their contract was in part financed by money sent as a gift or subsidy to James VI by [[Elizabeth I of England]].<ref>Jemma Field, [https://ift.tt/3bpA5uU 'Dressing a Queen: The Wardrobe of Anna of Denmark at the Scottish Court of King James VI, 1590–1603', ''The Court Historian'', 24:2 (2019), p. 154.]</ref>
Jousie provided textiles for the [[Masque at the baptism of Prince Henry]]. These were financed by using Anne of Denmark's dowry, which had been invested in various towns. Jousie received £1000 from Aberdeen.<ref>John Stuart, ''Extracts Council Register of Aberdeen: 1570-1625'', vol. 2 (Aberdeen, 1848), pp. 94-99.</ref>
Foulis was bankrupted in 1598. He gave a statement of his debts to Parliament, which included £145,700 and interest on that sum to £33,000 Scots. The roll submitted to Parliament listed the names of the creditors of Foulis and Jousie, who had loaned them money with which they financed the court. It includes the Edinburgh Company of Tailors, based on the Cowgate, who had lent £1,200, the merchant and poet [[John Burrell (poet)|John Burell]], and Bartholomew Kello, the husband of the calligrapher [[Esther Inglis]]. Kello's loan of £4,000 was one of the larger contributions, and the merchant Jacob Baron had invested £14,822 Scots.<ref>''Acts of the Parliaments of Scotland'', vol. 4 (Edinburgh, 1816), pp. 166-168.</ref>
In England, after the [[Union of the Crowns]], Jousie was appointed Groom of the Bedchamber, Groom or Yeoman of the Robes, and deputy Keeper of the Privy Purse, in the years 1606 to 1611.<ref>Neil Cuddy, 'The Revival of the Entourage', David Starkey, ed, ''The English Court'' (London, 1987), p. 187: Maria Hayward, ''Stuart Style'' (Yale, 2020), p. 182.</ref>
