In general, the person who is featured in the biography is an active participant in important occasions or has articulated unique thoughts or suggestions that have been recorded in documentary format. Barbara Heck has left no correspondence or documents. Her marriage date was, for instance, not supported by any evidence. There aren't any original sources that can reconstruct her motives and her behavior throughout her existence. Her legacy is an important figure for the beginning of Methodism. The biographical mission is to determine and account for the myth and if possible to describe the real person enshrined in the myth.

Abel Stevens a Methodist Historian recorded the event in 1866. Barbara Heck is now unquestionably the first woman to be included in the time of New World ecclesiastical women, due to the advances made by Methodism. Her accomplishments must chiefly consist of the creation of her most valuable name based on the history of the great causes with which her legacy will be forever linked more from the history of her life. Barbara Heck had a fortuitous role in the establishment of Methodism within Methodism in the United States of America and Canada. Her name is based on the natural tendency that any highly successful organisation or organization must magnify the origins of its movement to increase the sense of the past.
