Hugh Marwick OBE FSA Scot (30 November 1881, Rousay, Orkney, Scotland – 21 May 1965, Kirkwall) was a Scottish scholar noted for his research on the Orkney Norn. His MA was from the University of Edinburgh, who awarded his D.Litt. in 1926 after he had worked many years on his doctoral thesis, the basis for his book The Orkney Norn. While researching and writing, he was also headmaster of Kirkwall Grammar School (then called the Burgh School). He was appointed in 1914 after some years teaching in Lancashire, and continued as headmaster until 1929, when he was made director of the Orkney Education Committee, a post he held until 1946.
