Julian Marshall (24 June 1836 – 21 November 1903) was an English music and print collector, tennis player and writer.

[2] As a young man, Marshall started collecting prints, and later, music manuscripts.

[3] In 1873 he played an important early lawn match with William Hart Dyke and John Moyer Heathcote at Lullingstone Castle.

[4] By 1877 the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club was proposing the first Wimbledon Championships, and a review of the rules was required.

Marshall, with his fellow MCC commissioner Heathcote and Henry Jones of the All England club, laid down the rules that are little changed to this day, in time for the first Wimbledon tournament on 9 July 1877.
