Welcome to Rootschat. To start with I've moved your post to the ARMAGH board.
You have lots of details to start with so it should be fairly straight-forward to get more information.

Joseph Cullen married Margaret Laurison- their marriage certificate should list Joseph's residence at time of marriage as well as father's name and occupation. Civil registration index (online) shows Maggie Laurison MARRIAGE July/Sept.1901 Banbridge registration district volume 1 page 219 with a Joseph Cullen on the same page.

The 1901 census was taken 31 Mar.1901 so they might both be listed there-
There's a Maggie Laurison age 20 in this household-

The actual marriage certificate should list his father's name and occupation (mothers are not listed). See here for ordering N.I. certificates:

The only way to be certain of fathers names is to order copy of marriage certificate as aghadowey says at http://www.groireland.ie/apply_for_a_cert.htm

I find that ordering a photocopy of the actual certificate is best, so that you can decipher the details if necessary.

From the fathers name and address given, ( and possibly age at marriage) hopefully you can get the birth details.

I have the details of two Joseph Cullen births that may fit.
1st July 1869 to Owen and Margaret Quin at Blackwatertown Armagh.
22nd Oct 1870 to Edward Cullen and Elizabeth Rafferty, Loughgall Armagh.


Good luck
