<!-- Note: The comital title of Lumieres originated in Portugal but divided to one in Portuguese and one in Spanish peerage (the continuation of the title was not recognized by Portuguese king), both titles were from then on held by different dynasties and numbered differently. The specific one mentioned here was the recreation of the title in Portuguese peerage by Joseph I of Portugal on 29 October 1753 which eventually passed to a branch of Cunha family by marriage. This branch adopted the additional surname of Meneses and often used their arms dimidated with those of Menses (of Cantanhede) family as can be seen on the portrait of  Francisco da Cunha e Meneses, 79th Governor of Portuguese India, Francisco being the grandson of Maria do Resgate Carneiro Portugal da Gama Vasconcelos Sousa Faro, 3rd Countess of Lumieres (Portuguese recreation) and younger son of 4th Count. -->
