Radio observations have been made with both high angular resolution and sensitivity at 6 and 11 cm of thirteen 3 CR radio sources. In eleven of these, compact or fairly compact central components have been detecting, making it possible to pinpoint the location of the optical object and to confirm some previously suggested identifications. Optical images of 3 C114, 3 C277, and 3 C437, which were previously unidentified, have been obtained, and redshifts have been measured for 3 C114, 3 C272, 3 C277, and 3 C437. All of the sources are associated with galaxies, with redshifts ranging from 0.165 to nearly 1.8. The newly identified sources have redshifts greater than 0.6. All the sources display some form of double structure, about half of them being symmetrical, classical doubles. It is pointed out that the higher redshifts (z greater than 0.8) sources in this group have relatively weak bridges, although the high redshift sources with extended Ly-alpha display strong bridge emission.
