With whom did Robert Burns live? It depends on where he was. He first lived with his mother, father and siblings in Alloway, his birthplace, moved with them to Mt. Oliphant, Lochlie and his final "Burnes" family move was to Mossgiel in 1784. After his book of verse, POEMS: CHIEFLY IN THE SCOTTISH DIALECT, "The Kilmarnock Edition" published successfully in 1786, Robert moved to Edinburgh. During his season debut to gain "The Edinburgh Second Edition," subscribers, he wintered from November 1786 through May 1787, living with friend, John Richmond, then toured Scotland from May to October 1787, returning to Mossgiel when he could. In 1787-88, he returned to Edinburgh and lived with the William Cruikshank family; however, in February 1788, Robert needed to gain an income after he exhausted POEMS funds. Because he "saved & wrote" Scottish songs, he would not take pay for them; therefore, he moved to Ellisland becoming a farmer, Exciseman (taxman) and settled down with life long love, Jean Armour now Mrs. Robert Burns with whom he lived until his death in 1796. In 1791, when Robert left farming to become a full time Exciseman, the Burns family moved to Dumfries and their apartment in the Wee Vennel then their final move was in 1793, to their home, Mill Hole Brae where he met his death in July 1796.
