I read on the AKC website that they first started coming over to America around 1870, but the breed was altered around 1930 from the original breed from England to be stronger.

Sometime in the 1900's. There would have been crosses that look something like them anyway. Most "pitbulls" you see around arent pure bred, its easy to get a dog that looks like a pit bull by crossing a Staffie with a Labrador for example. Its hard to tell the exact date.
