Rear-Admiral Sir John Marshall (1785 – 30 September 1850) was a Royal Navy officer. Having joined the navy in 1800, he fought at the raid on Batavia as a lieutenant in 1806 and was promoted to commander in 1812 while serving at the siege of Riga. He was given a command on the East Indies Station and took passage there on HMS Java. Java was captured by USS Constitution in December and Marshall was unable to assume command. Subsequently released in a prisoner exchange, he was instead given command of HMS Shamrock in 1813. In December he was given command of a squadron of gunboats in the North Sea to assist in the attack and capture of Glückstadt, which was completed on 5 January.
