Alexander Keith Marshall (February 11, 1808 - April 28, 1884) was a United States Representative from Kentucky. He was born at Buck Pond, near Versailles, Kentucky. He completed preparatory studies and settled in Nicholasville, Kentucky. Studying medicine, he was graduated from the medical department of the University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia in 1844 and then engaged in the practice of medicine at Nicholasville, Kentucky.

Marshall was a member of the Kentucky constitutional convention held in Frankfort, Kentucky in 1849. He was elected as a candidate of the American Party to the Thirty-fourth Congress (March 4, 1855-March 3, 1857).
