Jacquie,

I noticed your posting, because I have frequently seen the Maddox name in my Bartholomew County research. I don't find any connection to my family (Maddox is not in my direct lines), but I recommend you watch for that spelling when you are searching in the area. I don't live there now, but I was born in Bartholomew County and my family lived in Clifty Township.

1880 (online transcription from LDS familysearch) Clifty Township, Bartholomew Co IN pg 18b
Maddock, Robert B md m w 38 farmer ENG ENG ENG
       Ruth E wife md f w 36 kh IN IN IN
       Clara M dau 15 IN
       William F son 13 IN
       Thomas O son 10 IN
       Isabelle dau 6 IN
       Sarah M dau 1month IN
Maddock, Robert father wd m w 71 gardner ENG ENG ENG

From Bartholomew Co death records & Bartholomew Co Archives:
Clara M Maddock married Isaac N Wiley 9 Feb 1893 Bartholomew Co IN
William F Maddock married Matilda Jane Hook 15 April 1888 Bartholomew Co IN
Thomas O Maddock married Martha J (Marty Jane) Emmert 14 Nov 1898 Bartholomew Co IN
Emma I/J (Bell) Maddock married Harry R Emmert 17 Sept 1893 Bartholomew Co IN
Sarah Maddock married William Beatty 1 Dec 1905 Bartholomew Co IN

(Quite a few births are listed in Bartholomew records for Robert's grandchildren; note that on some of these records the name is listed as Maddox)

Regarding your specific question --

Bartholomew County deaths show:
Robert Maddock, male, white, age 81 d 6 Sept 1890 Bartholomew Co IN
Robert Maddock, male, white, age 61 d 17 Jan 1905 Clifty Township, Bartholomew Co IN

There are 2 listings in the Bartholomew County Archives for Little Sand Creek Cemetery (Grammar, section 27 of Clifty Township, Bartholomew Co IN), so it might be that both Robert Jr & Sr are buried there:
Robert Maddock, Little Sandcreek Cemetery, page 2
Robert Maddock, Little Sandcreek Cemetery, page 3

If you are not able to locate someone to go to the cemetery, you might contact the Archives Dept to see if they already have a reading -- they are quite helpful in doing lookups in their records. With the exact date, the Bartholomew County Public Library will likely be able to find a newspaper notice as well.

Best of luck.

P. S. I noticed that the Indiana mg index shows the following, which seems a little odd:
MADOCK JONATHAN TILBERRY HANNAH Huntington 3-2-1843
TILBERRY HANNAH MADOCK JONATHAN Huntington 1-4-1851

1850 index shows Jonathan Madock in Huntington Co IN, 57th District, page 57; Robert & William B are in Springfield Twp, Franklin Co, page 371; and there is a Galon Madock in 2nd District, Ohio Co, page 333.
Under the Maddock spelling: Eli in Wayne Co IN; Nathan in Cass Co; William H in Morgan Co.
