Born in Lyons in the province of Gaul in 186, he was the son of the future emperor Septimius Severus and Julia Domna.

 Talk:Publius Septimius Geta - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There seems to be 2 accepted birth places for Geta (Rome and Milan) (google).
"Spartianus, Caracalla, 2" is in fact a roundabout reference to the Historia Augusta; it appears to mean Chapter 2 of the Life of Caracalla, but is an old-fashioned way of referring to the Life of Geta, which has been viewed as a sort of appendage (a "chapter 2" if you will) to Caracalla.
Spartianus, of course, is one of the pseudonyms of the author of the Historia Augusta.
