Malone et al find the age of zircons from granitic cobbles in Laurentide Ice Sheet, Lake Michigan Lobe tills from the Illinoisan (MIS 6) and Wisconsin (MIS 2) glaciations. The ages from the zircons in both tills are dominantly late Archean, and indicate an ice flow source from the Quebec-Labrador Dome east of Hudson Bay. The implication is that the configuration of the Laurentide Ice Sheet was likely similar in the two glaciations. pubs.geoscienceworld.org/sepm/
