On 5 February 1805, he advertised himself as a seller of Thomas Clark's newly-published work A Set of Psalm and Hymn Tunes, on p1 of the Kentish Chronicle:

'SACRED MUSIC

Marsh's own collection of music, A Set of New Psalm & Hymn Tunes Composed in a Familiar Style, was published for him by James Peck of 47, Lombard St, London, and 'Sold by the Author Palace St. Canterbury'. The preface to this collection is dated 1816, and acknowledges Thomas Clark's assistance.
