Friedrich Loeffler discovered the cause of foot and mouth disease in 1897 as being a viral disease. He discovered this from passing infected FMD blood through a filter and the fluid that came out could still infect a healthy animal. As to who discovered the disease's existence we have no way of knowing, the US has been having outbreaks since the 1870s, and the disease has probably been around much longer than that.
