I think I recall that some manufacturer makes generic late colonial (turn of the century?) naval gun crew. I need some gunners for a gunboat. Can anyone help?

Old Glory has Naval gun crews in its Boxer Rebellion Range.

Also check out Old Glory – Spanish American War line for Spanish and U.S. gun crews as well as sailors armed with rifles for your landing party.

The Houston Collection of "True 25mm" Naval Guns & Fittings has such sailors in multiple poses, including figures carrying shells from about 1-pdr size all the way up to two-part heavy shell and cartridge, as well as fire fighting crews, survivor figures (to seat in boats and in the water), and all at the lowest prices in the industry.

Visit via this link and scroll down to "Ship Fittings & Crews" to see samples.

However, two caveats! 1) A restock of these figures is on order, so couldn't be sent immediately, and 2) The "Add To Cart" Buttons are no longer functional (Thanks, PayPal!), so any order would have to be E-mailed to TVAG@att.net.

I know, hardly the best terms of the day, but these figures are likely the very ones you were thinking of!
