Ah, OK, for future reference, you're probably using IMAP, which is now
the default for GMail. I'm not sure it figures into your problem, but
the read/unread status is kept in the cloud when you're using IMAP, so
if you read a message on one device, it'll show up as read on all of
your devices. Like I said, I'm not sure that's what's going on here.
Glad you got it resolved though!
BTW, I just use the Unread mail box, and I don't pay attention to the
unread count on the Mail app's icon. I'm pretty sure it's been accurate
on my phone though.

Hello Chris
There was nothing in the unread box. I went through ALL mail and deleted a
bunch of stuff but even there nothing was marked unread. However after I
went through all that the notification that I had 2 unread messages, which
has been there for a week or so, was gone. The count is now once more
accurate.
As to your question: Is this using the POP, IMAPp or Exchange protocol, I
have no clue. I have one gmail account set up on the i phone and it says
nothing about any of that in there. Verizon is my carrier. I have an i phone
6 and, I don't know if this matters, but I did not update to IOS 9. Likely
something was hiding and for some reason not reading that it was unread. I
even checked drafts and the junk boxes.

I haven't seen this problem myself. What do you see when you go into
your Unread mail box? Is this using the POP, IMAPp or Exchange protocol?
