Not quite sure what your issue is but go to Settings | Customize | Leads | Fields and click the Map Lead Fields button - this controls the mappings of Lead fields to Accounts/Contacts/Opportunities.

 

You should also review your APEX code (per the APEX developer guide) on how to code a Lead Conversion as it takes two steps.

Good morning , Ok when you look at a lead then scroll down below the "activity history" I created an "object" called History In it contains Information that I add. But when I convert this lead to an account the Object transfers over but the information in it does not. The mapping fields only works for the top half of the lead not an object I created. That's where I got lost . Thanks again for helping.

SFDC out-of-the-box Lead Conversion takes lead object data and distributes it to Account, Contact, and Opportunity records.  No other records are involved.

 

You control the fields that are mapped (source-to-target) using Customize | Leads |  Fields

 

If you also want to copy children objects of Lead to other records, you'll need to write APEX code
