  We present low-resolution spectroscopy of newly-discovered candidate
companions to three stars in the Solar Neighbourhood. All three companions are
M dwarfs, with spectral types ranging from M4 to M9.5. In two cases, G85-55`B'
(M6) and G87-9`B' (M4), we have circumstantial evidence from spectroscopy,
photometry and limited astrometry that the systems are physical binaries; in
the third, G216-7B (M9.5), comparison of POSS II IIIaF plate material and the
2MASS image indicates common proper motion. The primary star in this system,
G216-7A (M0), appears itself to be an unresolved, nearly equal-mass binary. All
three low-mass companions are highly likely to be stellar in nature, although
G216-7B lies very close to the hydrogen-burning limit.
