Hi Susan, I have already submitted a suggestion re date and some form of multiple addresses instead of having to use events to record the info. I have 10 different addresses during the past 35 years and my Grandparents had 6 so I end up with a lot of "Events" in some cases.
There is a "Master Event Address List" in which I can add addresses but I have not found how to link them to a person - yet! It does not allow you to enter dates for the address.

I like to use "from 13 Apr 2007 to present" in my events that are current and ongoing, like jobs or residences. I think we should submit an enhancement request on the Legacy Home Tab to allow the date format to recognize "[date] -" [blank] or "[date] to present" as a valid entry. I ignore the errors generated now, also.
