Early Life and Family

Lumiere was born in Galveston, Texas to American parents Lynn, a CLEC Engineer and Jodi, a Barber and Reiki Master on February 8. Lex was named after her mothers best friend. Lumiere's parents divorced when she was five years old. She is one of five children with four half-sisters. Lumiere's mother Jodi was born in Port Arthur, Texas to parents of mixed Spanish, Mexican and Cherokee decent. Lumiere's father is of French ancestry, descendents of Michel Peveto II (1799-1881) of Johnson Bayou, the son of Michel Peveto I and Apolonie Broussard. Michel was a private in Capt. Shadrack Porter's Company of Infantry, 15th Regiment, Louisiana Militia, War of 1812. Michel was in the Battle of New Orleans fighting with President Andrew Jackson in the War of 1812 against the British.[2] [2] Under the command of Captain William M. Logan on April 21, 1836 Michel Peveto fought in the Battle of San Jacinto and survived to became one of the earliest settlers of Jefferson County, Texas where he obtained land grants and settled at Taylor’s Bayou [3] and helped build the first church in the State of Texas.[3][4] [4] [5][5]

Lumiere was born into art legacy: her grandparents - Bea Cricchio, was an award winning portrait artist and the first Latin woman to be inducted into the Professional Photographers Association (PPA) in the United States.[6][6] Bea painted and touched up negatives by hand and if she could not correct them, she would paint the entire portrait to canvas, paintings which won her many awards. Bea's maiden name was Beatrice Jinez Bettencourt, her mother was Simona Alameda (Lumiere's great-grandmother). Simona is documented in Port Arthur, Texas History as the first female of "La Colonie Mexicana" workers. [7][7] Before the American- Mexican Civil War, Simona married Estanislado Jinez (Born 1893. Originally spelled Gines) the son of the Spanish Aristocratic family Medina. His mother, Diega Medina had gone against her families wishes and married his father, Spanish Composer Leonardo Gines. The Medina family considered the marriage below their political station and disowned her. Pregnant, Diega and Leonardo traveled across the Atlantic Ocean by boat from Spain to Mexico where she died giving birth to Estanislado in Montemorelos, Nuevo Leon, Mexico where he was raised. Estanislado grew up to marry Simona (Bea Cricchios Mother) together in Mexico they had their eldest son Jesse, and were pregnant when Estansilado had to leave for war. Months later Simona received news that he died in battle, but she had to find a way to support her family. Simona's father Severo was a Leather Craftsman, and paid her citizenship fee of $5.00 into the United States for Simona to go to work in Texas. Pregnant and alone with their five year old son, she settled at King Ranch for work, when Estanislado shockingly returned from the war. The military had proclaimed him deceased when he was still very much alive. Simona had relocated and re-married the son of the owners of King Ranch in Texas and given birth to an infant. There, Estanislado gave her an ultimatum, that she could remain on King Ranch with the infant, and he would take the oldest son with him or she could leave the infant and return with him to Jefferson County, now Port Arthur, Texas a town built by railroad pioneer Arthur E. Stilwell. Simona decided to leave the infant with the family at King Ranch knowing he would be well provided for and to move with the husband Estanislado. The family does not know what became of the child, just that Simona would often cry for him, saying his name in her sleep up until her passing in 1992.

Lumiere's biological grandfather is Simon Bettencourt, Bea Cricchio's first husband, they had three daughters but he died before Lex was born. Bea Cricchio remarried Frank Cricchio, a Kodak Camera Craftsman, one of the Top 50 Master Photographers in the world and former President of the Houston Professional Photographers of America (PPA), Winona International School of Professional Photography and award recipient for Fuji's Lifetime Achievement Award for Photography.[8][8] Together, they owned the businesses Cricchio's Bridals and Formals and Cricchio Studios where Lex Lumiere grew up being trained in a world of art: painting, traditional lighting and classic darkroom film photography. Their Photography Studio was located on land originally owned by, (left adjacent) from Mr. and Mrs. McFaddin, what is now the McFaddin-Ward House Museum. [9] Mr. McFaddin was a famous and wealthy cattle rancher during the early 1900's, they had steaks on the Waldorf Astoria Menu in New York City and held interest in Spindletop, the oil gusher responsible for creating the Texas Oil Boom in the United States in 1901. [10] Their Photography Studio across the street from the McFaddin Home was destroyed by Fire and relocated to Bridge City, Texas. It was destroyed again by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Mr. Cricchio retired and Lex Lumiere relocated to New York City in 2006 to establish herself as an Professional Artist.[9] [11]
