Changing 'Only Australian woman to receive Medaille de la Reconnaissance Française'

[edit]

Quick note about why I am removing the "only Australian woman" part of the claim about Gray receive the Medaille de la Reconnaissance Française from the first paragraph: The Australian Dictionary of Biography reference does state that she is the only Australian woman to receive the honour.[1] But there are quite a few women who have received it over the years. For example, the year in 1919, a few women received it, including Helen Sexton.[2] Also, this article suggests that Gray didn't receive her Medaille de la Reconnaissance Française en bronze until 1926.[3]
