Notes for Monroe Wade
Floyd Co., Virginia birth records list Manerva Wade, born 25 June 1865, father John C. Wade, mother Mary, informant father.
There is no other birth record that could fit to be the son Monroe age 5 in the 1870 census (I checked adjacent years). Nor is there any other record of a Manerva Wade of approximately the right age. Apparently either the birth was recorded wrong or the transcriber misread it.
