Why does my first site still get author credit on Facebook if it's dead?

    I opened an account and started three blogs. When I shared with Facebook, my first blog always got credit for the post. At the bottom, it said, “By” and then listed my first blog, no matter which blog I was writing on.
    Okay, no big deal. But now I’ve deleted that first blog. It’s still getting credit for writing my other posts, and if I share my posts in a message, one of the links goes to a dead site message page. Not cool.
    How do I change this? I’ve already been through all my settings. I’ve unconnected and reconnected with FB. Still the same. I don’t see how to change this. Help, please.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Can you link me to one of these Facebook posts? To give me a direct link, find the post in your feed on Facebook and click on the timestamp of the post.
