Location bar history contains websites even though everything from history has been cleared

The location bar offers autocomplete suggestions that should not be a part of my browser's history. I have tried clearing everything in my Browsing History, changing the settings for my location bar suggestions (to Nothing, and then back to History and Bookmarks), and shift deleting individual websites from the autocomplete suggestions, but the websites still return no matter what. I would like to use the history and bookmarks as the suggestions for my location bar, but I would like a clean slate without all of the websites that keep showing up. Thank you for your help!
