Removed History and lost gmail. Now Google won't let sign onto my email account; it treats me as a new account and says somebody already has this address!

Aye you absolutely sure you are using the correct account name and password ?

Ordinarily just clearing History will not prevent you using webmail.

If you use the History option to forget about the site it would clear everything from the History of that site including: cookies, the site address and the login details

In fact recording all the details then using the forget site option can be a good trouble shooting step to gain access to a site. Or try an alternative browser.

If someone has taken control of your account you will need to that up urgently with Google. You will need your security details to hand. You may also need to consider what else may be compromised
