廖寅，四川邻水人。
清史稿卷三百六十二 列传一百四十九：
廖寅，字亮工，四川邻水人。乾隆四十四年举人。家贫，不能常试礼部，十二年中，仅再至都。以大挑知县官河南，署叶县。时教匪方炽，叶当冲，寅抚民不扰。民有从逆者，捕其魁乃定。长子思芳有武略，省父至叶，任以守卫事。诏捕教首刘之协，久不获。一日，思芳巡历近郊，见二人絷马坐树下语，异之，归戒门者伺状。俄二人入城饮肆中，有识之者，其一即之协。寅趣思芳往与杂坐，出不意缚之，鞫得实，械至都伏法。特擢江苏镇江知府。濬丹阳九曲河，筑徬，以时启闭，民便之。擢江西吉南赣道，兼筦关榷，正税外无多取，吏胥奉法。会南昌煽乱，捕首恶置法。安远复乱，单骑往谕，解散党与，耆民等缚其魁以献，事遂平。历署布政使、按察使。嘉庆十六年，迁两淮盐运使。恤灶丁，治私枭，盐课渐增。河北滑县教匪起，总督百龄檄寅往徐州协守御。会捕逆匪刘第五，误系同姓名者，坐失察降调，上念其擒刘之协功，许捐复原职。以老病归，遂卒。
思芳少时居乡治团练，从军数有功，官至江苏候补道。在叶手擒刘之协，名闻天下。后以捕刘第五获罪下狱，寻赦之。
