Marshall worked for much of his life for the Duke of Gordon as the Steward of his Household, and it is fortunate that the Duke was an enthusiastic supporter and patron of Marshall's music. The House of Cairnfield was a Gordon family seat built in 1802 near the burn of Gollachy, Portgordon, Scotland.
