The subject of the biographies is generally someone who played crucial roles in historical moments, or developed unique ideas or proposals that were recorded in writing. Barbara Heck however left no letters or statements indeed they are not evidence in relation to the date of her wedding is not the only evidence. It's difficult to discern the motives behind Barbara Heck and her actions throughout her entire life from the primary sources. Yet, she's remained a heroic figure in early North American Methodism theology. The biographer is required to establish the myth, explain it as well as describe the person who appears in the tale.

It was the Methodist historian Abel Stevens wrote in 1866. Barbara Heck is now unquestionably the first woman in the historical record of New World ecclesiastical women, due to the advances made by Methodism. Her record is based more on the significance of the cause that she has been connected to than the personal circumstances. Barbara Heck was involved fortuitously with the beginning of Methodism throughout both the United States and Canada and her fame is based on the natural tendency of the most successful movements or organization to celebrate the beginnings of its existence to strengthen its sense of tradition and continuity with the past.
