Your information was very helpful and I thank you for your quick reply. 

What is confusing for me is that Annie Thornton b1895 in Salford, Oxfordshire,
married John H Souch in 1921, yet married Charles V E Kitching in 1913.

 I have her death listed in 1975 as Souch.  When she remarried, if I indeed do have the right person, she didn't marry with her married name, but with Thornton.

I do not believe I have two Annie Thornton's, but this is making me question whether or not there are two with the same birth year, same location though I can't flush it out.

Hi there

I believe that they are two separate Annie Thornton's

Your Annie Thornton has a middle name on 1921 marriage entry her initial is 'E'
and on her 1975 death entry it gives Annie's full middle name
Annie Elizabeth Souch dob 24 May 1895

for info. Charles E V Kitching who married Annie Thornton he was widowed by 1939

Do you have her 1921 m/c confirming father's name & occupation?

Her dob on death matches this birth entry on FreeBMD
Annie Elizabeth THORNTON Jun qtr. 1895 Chipping Norton Oxfordshire
Volume 3A page 928

Do you have her b/c confirming parents names?

It looks as if
John H SOUCH & Annie E THORNTON had children born between
1922 Chipping N – 1939 N Cotswold see FreeBMD

Charles Kitching & Annie Thornton had children born between
1914 Chipping N to 1925 Woodstock see FreeBMD

If you do a free search of 1939 register
Chipping Norton their surname has been mistranscribed as GOUCH
Annie E born 1895
John born 1893
3 people that are officially closed

and 1939 Oxfordshire

Charles E V Kitching born 1887
Horace E Kitching born 1917

Hope the above will be of some help to you

ADDED ~ for info.

There are also two John Henry Souch's born around the same time in Oxfordshire

one is the son of Henry & Harriet Souch and he died 1917 during the war
http://www.cwgc.org/find-war-dead/casualty/3065734/SOUCH,%20JOHN%20HENRY

your John Henry Souch appears to be the son of

George occ. Ag Lab. & Agnes Souch but on the 1901 census John Henry Souch born c1893
is known as  Harry Souch born c 1894 Chipping Norton the family are living
Spring Street, Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire reference   RG13 Piece 1399 Folio 34 Page   15

This appears to be your John Henry Souch’s birth entry
Sep qtr. 1893 Chipping Norton Oxfordshire vol 3a page 921

and possible death John Henry Souch dob 4/7/1893
1980 North Cotswold Gloucestershire vol 22 page 1813
