lost folders after importing from gmail
Having imported all my old emails from a gmail account to Thunderbird when I returned they were all gone. I have done this twice previously with other old email accounts and the emails have remained in their correct folders. Not sure why they would disappear on this occasion. How can I recover them?

Please explain in detail what you did.
What is the account type of the Gmail account - POP or IMAP?
I followed the process here: https://ithelp.brown.edu/kb/articles/back-up-your-mail-on-your-computer-using-thunderbird
How can I recover them?
If you properly followed the instructions in the article linked above all your mail would still be on the Gmail server's Inbox.
Wrt the disappearing messages see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Disappearing_mail for possible reasons.
Yes, but I have closed the gmail account so I now don’t have access to them
