History
During his travels in Germany, Thomas Jefferson (April 13 [O.S. April 2] 1743 – July 4, 1826) documented the production of Westphalian ham and aspects of the hogs used to produce it.
In the early 1900s, there were three varieties of Westphalia ham: kugel cut, boneless and rolled, and regulation ham.
In the early 1900s, significant quantities of Westphalian ham were being exported from Germany into the United States.
