Marcos Ezequiel Antonio Cabral y Figueredo (10 April 1842 – 3 March 1903) was a Dominican military officer, renowned writer, speaker, and president of the Dominican Republic.

Provisional Presidency

During th Dominican Restoration War, Cabral Figurredo was personal secretary of General Pedro Florentino. He was there in September 1863, when he rose up against Spain in Baní.

His time as head of state was brief. He took office as President of the Provisional Government Board on December 10, 1876, replacing President Ignacio María González, who renounced power.
