We investigate the relative motion of three stars, ADS 7446, 9346, and 9701, based on long-term observations with the Pulkovo 26-inch refractor. The relative motion of all three stars shows a perturbation that could be produced by the gravitational influence of an invisible companion. For ADS 7446, we have determined the orbit of the photocenter with a period of 7.9 yr; the mass of the companion is more than 0.4 M &sun;. For ADS 9346, we have determined the radial velocities of the components: -14.60 km s-1 for A and -13.94 km s-1 for B. For ADS 9346 and 9701, we have determined the dynamical parallaxes, 24 and 20 mas, respectively, which are larger than those in the Hipparcos catalog by 5 mas, and calculated the orbits by the apparent motion parameter (AMP) method. The new orbit of ADS 9346 is: a = 5″.2, P = 2035 yr, and e = 0.46 at the system’s mass M = 2.5 M &sun;. The new orbits of ADS 9701 are: ( a = 2″.9, P = 829 yr, e = 0.54, M = 4.3 M &sun;) and ( a = 3″.8, P = 1157 yr, e = 0.53, M = 5.0 M &sun;).
