Foreign Recruitment

Knowing that there were many Maltese sailors in Nelson's Navy I am interested to know how their recruitment was undertaken in foreign ports ? Knowing that there were a number on board HMS Victory at Trafalgar I wonder if anyone can forward me any names. I think there was certainly four or five.

Greetings from what is a 40 degree heat here today.
