Humphrey Marshall (January 13, 1812 – March 28, 1872) was an American lawyer, politician, and military official from Kentucky. During the Antebellum era, he served four terms in the United States House of Representatives, interrupted by a brief stint as ambassador to China. When the American Civil War broke out, he sided with the Confederacy, becoming a brigadier general in the CS Army and then a Confederate Congressman.

Marshall was born in Frankfort, Kentucky, to a distinguished family. He was the grandson of Humphrey Marshall, a member of the United States Senate from Kentucky. His uncle James G. Birney was a well known abolitionist, and two first cousins, William Birney and David B. Birney, served as major general in the Union army.
