I'm not sure what's happening there, but I have a couple guesses:

First, the History list can be filtered in two ways:  by search,
and by selection of which events to show.  To check if there is a
search restriction, Shift+Tab once from the list and make sure that
edit box is clear, then Tab back to the list.  If you took text out
of the edit box, you'll probably see more events in the list.  To
check for filtering by event type, go to the top entry, routeJAWSToPC,
go up one line, and see if the line ends with "all events."  If
not, or if you want to filter the list, left-click "all events" or
whatever comes after "show history" and choose the event type you
want from the pop-up menu.

Second guess:  Some conversations that continue over time may start
showing up at or near the top of your conversation list but only
farther down in History.  I haven't spent the time to figure out the
rules for this, but I think Skype avoids dropping an entry in History
every time, say, someone sends you a chat line.  In History, the event
is that there was a conversation; each chat line is probably not its
own History event.
