Francisco de Busso

Francisco de Busso (died 1576) was an Italian courtier in the service of Mary, Queen of Scots.

There was a procession bringing the food into the Great Hall, which Busso joined as a Master of Household walking with Gilbert Balfour and the Laird of Findlater.

Soon after, when James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray returned from France, he set a tailor who worked for his wife Annas or Agnes Keith, Countess of Moray to make Mary a new violet gown (une robbe de drap violet), and he let Mary have some of her older worthless clothes.

[11] John Knox wrote of the disapproval of Scottish courtiers at the influence of Busso and other foreigners preferred by Mary.

[13] Knox also wrote that Busso, and three other men of the "queen's domestics and strangers", were involved by the Earl of Bothwell in the murder of Lord Darnley.

Francisco de Busso was briefly in charge of the fabric and gardens of Holyrood Palace
