Separate Date and Location field so they populate from Source when one is filled in

It would be helpful to have the date field and the place field separated, with their own Reason section. If you have a date and no place, when attaching a Source the place name will not populate because a date is there. Easier to treat as distinct facts. Also when you have a County and State in the field, and we’re getting more precise location info from the Numerical ID Files, it would be nice if the field would automatically populate with the town, as long as the County and State matched.
