Ipad Safari Remembers History?

I have the prefs set to not remember history, and even if I clear it along with cookies, it still comes up with a recent list of the sites I have visited as soon as I type a character or two into Google. Where is that coming from? Is it the Diagnostic and User Data? Can I delete that data even if it isn't?

16 GB Ipad Version 7.1.2
Model FC705LL/
OS 8 (No room to install update, duh)



Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 13"
2.4GHz, 750GB SATA HD, 8 GB RAM, OS 10.7.5
1 HDX1500 2TB Ext.HD, 2 HDX1500 1TB Ext.HD

Could be that it's coming from Google. If you go to Settings -> Safari -> Search, there should be an option to toggle Search Engine Suggestions off. See if that makes a difference.

That works. I wanted to check if some keywords added to a website are working on Google. I do want Google to auto-suggest, just not based on my history...
