Mrs. Bata was born and educated in Swit- zerland and as a young woman studied architec- ture at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. In 1946, her marriage to Thomas J. Bata, head of the Bata Shoe Organization, brought her to Canada and turned her attention to footwear. The nationalization of the Czechoslovakian Bata holdings under Communist occupation at the end of the war focused the newly married couple’s at- tention on rebuilding the organization outside of Czechoslovakia. As part of this undertaking Mrs. Bata frequently traveled on business to various places around the world. It was during these trav- els that she became fascinated with the footwear worn by other peoples and began to seek out ex- amples of indigenous footwear. At first her col- lecting was motivated by the idea that indigenous footwear could inspire Bata designers as well as by concern that Western-style shoes were displac- ing traditional footwear. However, as her collec- tion grew, so did her interest and before long she began to collect ethnographic and historical foot- wear in earnest. By 1979, the collection had grown substantially. In response, the Bata Shoe Museum Foundation Fig. 1.

  • Gandy – an Old Established Shoemaking Family
    Gandy – an old established shoemaking family Throughout the 19 th century, census, church and other records for the Warrington area contain a wealth of evidence for the Gandy’s involvement in the shoe-making trade and other trades with links to footwear, such as hosiery. For example John Gandy was a hosier in The Market Place and Golden Square in Warrington in the 1820`s while Mrs Mary Gandy served the nobility, gentry and clergy in Church Street and Horsemarket Street. (Information provided by Sue Kinsella from trade directories). The connection between the Gandy family and shoes is even older. I have found Gandys who were shoemakers in the 18 th century, such as William Gandy of Prescot, who married Sarah Lingham in 1767 and John Gandy, also shoemaker of Prescot, who married Jane Whittle in 1768. Thomas Gandy, cloger, married Mary Houghton in 1826. James Gandy shoemaker married Ann Smethurst in 1761. Thos Gandy shoemaker married Ann Mason in 1768. Joseph Gandy shoemaker married Betty Wright in 1769. James Gandy shoemaker and wife Ann – christened son James in 1779 and daughter Lydia in 1782. Joseph Gandy, John Gandy, Thomas, James shoemakers carried on 1785, 1787, 1788, 1790,1795, 1796, - 1808. Warrington volunteers raised in 1798 to help meet the threat of invasion from Napoleonic France. 539 men serving in 1807, including James Gandey, Warrington, shoemaker. Another speciality of the Gandy cobblers was clogs: “When you talk of clogs in Warrington, people immediately think of the Gandy’s. And when you mention that name to-day you are referring to 70-year-old Mr.
