I did some digging and found where "start_year" is set if it isn't  
defined. In <install-dir>/vendor/horde/form/lib/Horde/Form/Type.php,  
there's a Horde_Form_monthdayyear where it is getting set:

....

        if (empty($start_year)) {
            $start_year = date('Y');
        }
        if (empty($end_year)) {
            $end_year = date('Y') + 10;
        }

This says that if start_year is null to then set the start_year to  
current year.  Earlier in this same file, there's a  
Horde_Form_Type_monthyear that sets the start_year to 1920 if  
"start_year" is undefined. 

I'm not sure why if a date is using MMDDYYYY the default is to use  
current year as the oldest date, but if the date is being requested is  
MMYYYY, then it'll go back to 1920 as the oldest year.

Should "start_year" be a variable that the user can set in Horde?

Maybe easiest to just set the MMDDYYYY to be the same 1920 as MMYYYY?  
I changed my config and put the "Html.php" file back to original and  
instead modified the "Type.php".

Line 3122:

Orig:
$start_year = date('Y');

Changed to:
$start_year = 1920;
