Clarence Emmett "Mark" Marquess (March 26, 1925 — January 19, 2015) was a Canadian-born American professional ice hockey player who played 27 games in the National Hockey League with the Boston Bruins during the 1946–47 season in which he recorded five goals and four assists for a total of nine NHL points. His first goal came in a home game versus the Chicago Back Hawks on January 15, 1947. Marquess scored two goals in that contest--one of which was the game-winning tally. Boston won the game, 6-3. Marquess appeared in four Boston playoff games in the spring of 1947 but failed to record a point. Marquess was born in Bassano, Alberta, but grew up in Ashland, Oregon.

The rest of his career lasted from 1945 to 1958 and was spent in various minor leagues. He died in 2015, aged 89 at his home in East Wenatchee, Washington.[1][2][3]
