Describe the bug

The addfips package is labeling Bedford, VA as '51515', which is the code for Bedford City. It should actually be '51019' (Bedford County). See their list of FIPS codes.

Bug Severity

How badly is this bug affecting you?
Medium: I was able to identify and fix the bug in my own workflow but it might affect other people.

To Reproduce

I found the error in the core_eia861__yearly_service_territory table. Census population files do not have the FIPS code 51515.

It looks like this particular issue was flagged by @TrentonBush almost a year ago, and addressed in the underlying package but not released. So perhaps we just need to bug them to cut a new release.
