Where Does Limbro Selman Come from

I'm a direct descendant of Limbro Selman (b:1738), who married Mary Derby (b:1736). they married in 1763, Rolvenden kent, England. Thomas Selman in their son (only child i know of) who was born in 1777, ewhurst, sussex, England. what i'm wanting to know is where was Limbro born? and who are his parents? I have a feeling he is another nationaltiy than English, as I have never heard of the name Limbro and cannot find it's origin anywhere on the internet. I would be so appreciative if anyone could tell me what nationality Limbro was.

Above link is the Will of Limbro Selman - not sure if this is the elder or younger. Limbro seems to have had a son Limbro and that happened for at least 3 generations.

So one of those had a son called Limbro or Limbero, check Selman Sellman or Salmon in records, who had an illegitimate child with Ann Christmas of Ewhurst. See https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/5aade4d9-2525-4f9d-9979-4270ddf8cd65
