Other things to note This historic home on the corner of Terrace Avenue and Parmenter Street has been part of the fabric of Middleton since the 1880s. The Middleton historic society has several stories about this home interwoven with the fact that it was once the Middleton post office. Around that time Mr. Parmenter, one of the first Post Masters in Middleton lived in the home. Parmenter Street is named after Mr. Parmenter. The historical society and museum is a few blocks away near the police station. The Acker family still owns the home and raised 8 children in the home between the 1950s and 2000s.
