Best Answer

While there were undoubtedly beautiful converts named Barbara, this saint is legend, and her cultus developed when pious fiction was mistaken for history. If she lived, she would have been born about the year 200 in Nicomedia. She is no longer listed as a saint and her cult has been surpressed.
