The person who is the subject of the biography typically an individual who has had a key role in circumstances that had an impact on the society, or who has come up with unique ideas and proposals, which are documented in some way. Barbara Heck left neither letters and declarations. In fact, the only evidence we have regarding the date of the marriage from second-hand sources. Through the entirety of her adult life it is not possible to find primary sources that can be used to determine her intentions and actions. But she is heroized in the beginning of North American Methodism theology. The biographical job is to identify and justify the myth and, if it is possible, to identify the real person enshrined in the myth.

A report by the Methodist historian Abel Stevens wrote in 1866. The growth of Methodism throughout the United States has now indisputably put the name of Barbara Heck first on the list of women who have a place in the history of the church of the New World. Her accomplishments will be largely due to the naming of her important name, derived from the past of the famous reason for which her name remains forever etched from the history of her lives. Barbara Heck had a fortuitous contribution to the development of Methodism within the United States of America and Canada. Her fame stems from the fundamental characteristic that any successful group or institution has to exaggerate the roots of their movement in order strengthen the sense of the past.
