At least one person attempted an answer to that. I guess I shall call them directly and see what reponse I can elicit. It usually seems to be the case that when nobody answers a query, that nobody knows the answer< Proper protocol for citation is to list the book's publisher at the time of publication. Therefor, one would cite the above-referenced work as being published by Virginia State Library and Archives. While many publishing entities may change the name of a business, it is by the name under which the work was published that one would find the work.
