The White English Terrier is the breed you'll most often hear was mixed into the bulldog to create the APBT. There were strains of APBT however, which had the occasional different breed (whippet, greyhound, and other terrier breeds) thrown into the mix as well, not to mention that some dogs were more bulldog than terrier, and vice-versa. It's also important to note that the "bulldog" then was different from the "bulldog" of today, much legger and athletic than their current counterparts.

The one that I always read about is the White English Terrier like Gooeydog said. It was one of the breeds mixed with the (then very different) Bulldog to produce the current, Bull Terrier, Am Staff, Staffy Bull, APBT, et al. Apparently it's a breed that is now extinct.
