Fancheon Gebhart with Billy

The name Fancheon is very unusual to me. Is it French?

Written on back:

====================

This is a photo from a box my Grandfather had marked "Unknown to me" so that obviously makes them unknown to me too. Some had writing on back or front so that gives some clues.

 

Any observations or comments are very welcome.
