This marriage would seem to fit as the following children were baptised to this couple:
Michael Cussen 13/9/1865
John Cussen 23/5/1867
James Cussen 12/6/1870
You have Maurices Baptism in 1873.
There is a Baptism of a John Cusson same parish as above 20May 1844 to
Parents Patrick Cussen & Julia Mahony Address CUILBARLEYE (think this might be gaelic for Barleyhill)

David have a look at www.nationalarchives.ie
In the 1901 Census John Cussen seems to be still living age 75 a widower living with his brother James Cussen House No 2 Benduff (Rosscarbery) Cork

Also in 1901 Census a Michael Cussen (could be Johns Son) Age 30 married with family House 3 Meenroe (Barleyhill) Cork

Also on the national archives site have a look at Griffith Valuation where some Cussens are listed

This address is a transcription error. The register says the address is Barleyhill. Looks like there was a mix-up with the preceding entry.

This is probably brother number four referred to in the opening post: http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/details/1f66300084748.

The townland on the record is Gurthroe (correctly Gortroe) which is very close to Barley Hill.
