Trying to find Beasley

Am trying to find John Patrick Beasley b 1891 Perth Western Australia. He was illigitimate son of Catherine Durnin but registered in both the mothers and fathers names. His Father Thomas Beasley did not marry Catherine but married Brenda Ridley in West Aust and went on to have another 4 children but died in 1902. Catherine Durnin went on to marry William Robinson Hocking but she died in 1904. Leaving a child to the step father or not is the question? There are so many options here I dont think i will ever find him but He either kept his name birth which was what beasle or Durnin?????, and lived with the Beasley family or he kept his name and lived with step father or changed his name and lived with the step father William Robinson Hocking. Either way I cannot find William Hocking or John Patrick Beasley Durnin or Hocking. Anywhere. If anyone has heard of these names would appreciate you contacting me. Thank you Hayley
