Emil Aaltonen
Emil Aaltonen ( Widell until 1890; b. 29 August 1869 — d. 16 December 1949) was a prominent Finnish industrialist and philanthropist, who went from humble beginnings to own and run the largest shoe manufacturing business of its time in the Nordic region. Early life Emil Widell was born in Sääksmäki (today part of Valkeakoski) to a farming family of modest means, as the third of seven children. The family lost their farm in the aftermath of the Finnish famine of 1866–68, and Emil's father had to take a job as a railway worker. He died relatively young, leaving his widow to care for the children.

By age 19, he had qualified as a master craftsman, and set up his own workshop in the town of Hattula. Widell changed his original Swedish surname to the Finnish Aaltonen in 1890, as was common during the Finnicization of names in the late 19th a ...
