If you do manage to find a URL or book that you can trust, I think that you
will find that the last few rounds of glaciers never really made it past the
western mountains in Virginia, North Carolina and perhaps the far western
extremes of South Carolina., and even there the evidence (i.e things that
look to be "transported bolders", and such) is very scant. Where present, I
think that the "common knowledge" is that these are likely "mountain
glaciers" rather than the big continental glaciers of an ice age.

http://www.virginiaplaces.org/geology/glaciers.html

Just a suggestion of a URL to look at. . . . .

Certainly not a scientific study but. . . . . . .When growing up I crawled
over a lot of hills in western NC and did not find much for glacial-like
residue..
