Could you please provide some dates and locale?

Why do you believe that she drowned?. 

What is the inscription on the headstone......all the words for Mary and anyone else named.

There are seven sacraments in the Church: Baptism, Confirmation or Chrismation, Eucharist, Penance, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony.
The sacrament of Anointing of the Sick is administered during periods of illness - often near the time of death, which would be what was done in this case.
