The subject of the biography usually a person who has played an important role in the things that have left an impact on the society or has made unique ideas and proposals, which are subsequently documented in some method. Barbara Heck, on the contrary, did not leave writings or statements. The proof of things as her date of wedding is not the only evidence. There aren't any primary sources from which one could reconstruct her motivations or her behavior throughout her existence. Despite this, she was a cult figure during the early days of Methodism. In this case, the job of a biography is to debunk the legend or myth and, if it can be done, describe the true person who was immortalized.

Abel Stevens, Methodist historian from 1866. The development of Methodism throughout the United States has now indisputably made the modest Barbara Heck's name Barbara Heck first on the listing of women who have been included in the ecclesiastical history of the New World. The magnitude of her record is primarily due to the creation of her most precious name made from the story of the major causes with which her legacy remains forever etched in the story of her own lives. Barbara Heck's involvement with the early days of Methodism was a fortunate coincidence. Her popularity is due to the fact that a very successful organization or movement will honor their past in order to maintain ties with the past and to be rooted to it.
