Welcome and thanks for the pics! I miss my hogs. So, what are those Hamps crossed with?

Bar the black one, they are British saddlebacks.

I've found my confusion.

The Wessex Saddleback hails from around the Isle of Purbeck where Hampshire and Dorset meet and could reasonably claim the title of the New Forest pig. It was from stock of Wessex pigs exported to the USA that the American Hampshire breed was developed although today, apart from the colour markings, there is very little similarity between the breeds.

No Saddlebacks over here that I know of.
