Gaeilge: More Relative Clauses
How do you say the following relative clauses in Irish? I believe these still count as relative clauses, correct?
1. I have been to Sunderland and Montague, BOTH OF WHICH are located in Western Massachusetts.
2. I have been to Sunderland, Leverette, and Montague, ALL OF WHICH are located in Western Massachusetts.
3. I have been to Easthampton and Leverett, Massachusetts, THE LATTER/FORMER OF WHICH is located in Franklin county.
How do you express these in Irish too? Perhaps these aren't actually relative clauses?
4. I have been to Sunderland and Montague, BOTH BEING LOCATED in Western Massachusetts.
5. I have been to Sunderland, Leverette, and Montague, WHICH ARE ALL located in Western Massachusetts.
6. I have been to Easthampton and Leverett, Massachusetts, THE FORMER BEING located in Hampshire county and THE LATTER BEING LOCATED in Franklin county.

Here's how I would translate them:
1. Bhí mé i Sunderland agus i Montague, atá in iarthar Mhassachusetts (iad araon)/dhá bhaile atá in iarthar Mhassachusetts.
2. Bhí mé i Sunderland agus i Leverett agus i Montague, atá in iarthar Mhassachusetts (iad uilig)/bailte atá in iarthar Mhassachusetts.
3. Bhí mé in Easthampton agus i Leverett i Massachussetts, a bhfuil an chéad cheann/an dara ceann acu i gcontae Franklin.
4. Bhí mé i Sunderland agus i Montague, iad araon in iarthar Mhassachusetts.
5. Bhí mé i Sunderland agus i Leverett agus i Montague, atá in iarthar Mhassachusetts (iad uilig).
6. Bhí mé in Easthampton agus i Leverett i Massachussetts, an chéad cheann acu i gcontae Hampshire agus an dara ceann acu i gcontae Franklin.
