    I assume you are using Wordpress blog. I have experienced similar to yours with many 404 error pages that never existed in my website. Those 404 pages have been linked from some content scraper website. I would recommend you do 301 redirect via .htaccess to prevent 404 error being found by Google. Here is the simplest way to get it done.

    1. Open .htacces file with text editor (you will find this file in root folder)
    2. insert this code in line

    
    redirect 301 /pagename-error.html http://www.domain.com/day/time/correct.html
    
    Code (markup):
    Do it for each and every 404 pages you ever found.
