Kathleen,

The generally accepted standard is to record locations as they were at the time 
the event occurred.  You can add a note indicating where the location is 
currently.

This is important in order to locate additional relevant records.  In many 
cases, the records will still be in the old place, not the new place.  For 
example, I have an ancestor who was living in what is now Henry Co., Iowa as 
early as 1835.  Relevant records for that time period are in Des Moines Co., 
not Henry Co. (and may be in Michigan and/or Wisconsin, not Iowa).
