We had the same issue and it impacted us alot and wasted alot of our time and resources. We restored our database, called Micro$oft and spent over $250 and finally and they can't find out the problem!
We found the solution ourselves by figuring out that there is a "Workflow Auto Cleanup " option available which is available under the MOSS 2007 Central Administration located at "Central Administration > Operations > Timer Job Definitions
Timer Job Definitions > Workflow Auto Cleanup"
Microsoft stupidly set the option to have the workflows to be deleted after a certain time. By disabling that option, we can aviod our workflow history being deleted. Thank you Microsoft! DUH!
