Quoting Simon Poole <si...@poole.ch>:
PS: wondering why Gruyere has that name.

Good question.
The town is named for a variety of cheese, as the area's history is in the dairy industry. Cahillton Post Office first opened on 20 August 1892. It was renamed Gruyere in 1950 and closed in 1960

Yes, Gruyère is a cheese, it's named after the town of Gruyères see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gruy%C3%A8res, very nice place BTW. That's why I was wondering :-), but I suppose the dairy indsutry explains it.
