The first one is probably "Avignon" (last name, jumps to eyes if you're french, it's the name of a well known town).
Could be Arrignon though (name present in France after google search).

The second one is trickier :
Pierre Lottan, I'm sure about Pierre, but not about the family name.
None of the possibilities (lottan, fottan, pottan, pollan, etc...) gives a common french name.

No results through historical SNCASO web search.
Hope it helps.
