I believe you answered your own question when you wrote:
" I have since modified the SQL table to have NULL as the default value for this field."

Initially, you didn't permit SQL Server to have a NULL date field so the ODBC driver filled 1/1/1900 in for you. If NULL would have been
initially permited ... I believe SQL Server would have let it stay NULL.
