Cy Marshall

Cy Marshall (April 17, 1902 in Kansas City, Missouri – December 20, 1974 in Volusia, Florida)[1] was an American racecar driver. Marshall was seriously injured and his riding mechanic, brother Paul Marshall, was killed in the 1930 Indy 500.[1] He returned to the race in 1947. The 17 years between starts is a record he shares with Roland Free who also competed in only the 1930 and 1947 races. Marshall also failed to qualify for the 1950 race.[2]

Cy Marshall is survived by three children: Cy Marshall, Jr., Gary Marshall, and Carolyn Marshall. Cy Marshall, Jr. and Gary Marshall reside in Florida; Carolyn Marshall resides in Indiana.
