Maxwell R. Marston (June 12, 1892 – May 7, 1949) was an American amateur golfer. He worked as an investment banker in Philadelphia. He was a member of the Cranford Golf Club in Cranford, New Jersey and lived on Central Avenue in the town.
In the 1923 U.S. Amateur at Flossmoor Country Club, Marston defeated three former or future Amateur champions: Bobby Jones (1924, 1925, 1927, 1928, 1930), Francis Ouimet (1931), and Jess Sweetser (1922) in the final (38th hole). He reached the final again in 1933, losing to George Dunlap, 6 and 5. Marston also won the New Jersey Amateur twice and the Pennsylvania Amateur three times.
