James Franklin Rushton, Sr (born c. 1876; died March 7, 1927 in Birmingham) succeeded his father, William Rushton, Sr, as president of the Birmingham Ice & Cold Storage Co.

The "Rushton Cup", awarded by the Altamont School to a senior showing all-around leadership, loyalty and sportsmanship, is named in Rushton's memory.

Rushton's widow, Willis Roberts Rushton, constructed a large residence at 2832 Balmoral Drive in the 1930s.
