Who or Whom ???

Hi .

Is this sentence correct :

"He has three brothers, all of who are married."

Should it be : "all of who..." or rather : "all of whom..."?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Whom.

Here the pronoun is an object of the preposition so it has to be in the objective case, i.e. of whom.

That is misleading: in Who is John talking to?, say, the pronoun doesn’t have to be in the accusative; in fact, nominative who is stylistically preferable. It’s when the preposition precedes who that the accusative is norma
