But if all these places ARE within a few miles of each then it's probably the same chap ...

Researching:
London: Faber, Haysey, Spicer ...

Here's a 4th place of birth. There's one on IGI christened 28 Mar. 1813, Foston on the Wolds, Yorkshire with parents John & Ann.

Researching:
Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)

'Birthplace' info on censuses is quite often where the person remembers growing up....not necessarily where they were actually born.

I have no idea where any of those places are, are they close to each other?

It may well be a case of checking all three places. Have you looked on the IGI?
