I just checked the dates, and Barbara's first issue was cover dated Jan 1967, and the live-action version didn't properly debut until late September. However, there was a rarely seen early promo of her fighting her main comic canon foe, Killer Moth. The script was dated in Jan 1967, as uncovered by this site:

Technically, the comic version came first, but one can easily argue a cross-media application and everyone acting at the same time (especially per the promo script's date). So, I'd say you'd be partially right. You are quite correct about Firestar, though.
Apologies, but being a Batgirl fan, I wanted to clarify.
Also, the Batgirl we know as Barbara Gordon was the second, the first being Bette Kane in 1961. But that's getting really nerdy. Heh.
