Three Arms, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, is a small settlement founded in or about 1864. It is in Fogo and Twillingate District.
In the 1910s, the town had a population of about 140 people, with James Norris owning a fish cannery, fishing schooners, and the town's only store.[1] Following the death of his son, Lieutenant Stephen Norris, in the First World War, he moved out of town and closed his businesses.[2] The last residents of Three Arms left town in the 1940s. Today, the town is abandoned and the original buildings are no longer standing.[3]
