After the most recent updates, "New Tab" now appears in the history for the tab so that going back brings me to the "New Tab" page which I have customized to show nothing since I didn't like the new features on "New Tab".

Would not clearing your History do this ? Yes will loose your History but ... History is to be Made.

Maybe some more info here : https://www.howtogeek.com/333805/how-to-change-or-customize-firefoxs-new-tab-page/

See New Tab Override link

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

I was able to get the behaviour I wanted by setting both browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.aboutHome.enabled and browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.enabled to false.
