Chicago May 1 1922 report shows 4 018 194 Methodist Episcopal Sunday School members in 36 181 schools with over 400 000 officers and teachers. They contributed 1 772 121 to missions, reaching 88 percent of the 2 000 000 goal. 181 254 pupils joined the church, 68 247 more than net membership gain.
The Methodist Year Book notes that without these accessions the church would have suffered a considerable loss in membership, highlighting the impact of new members on church strength and growth.

Documentary references include Willam Strachey’s script naming Matoake and an inscription on Simon de Passe’s painting identifying Matoaka as Robena, daughter of Powhatan.
