Best Answer

Yes, Staffordshire Bull Terriers come from the county, Staffordshire, in central England.

The Bull Terrier was bred from the SBT and they also come from England, but not necessarily from that county.

The American Staffordshire Terrier and the American Pit Bull Terrier both also were bred from the SBT, but those larger breeds come from America.
