I accidently deleted March, April and May 1 histories on my Mac. Is there a way to restore these histories?

Unlike the bookmarks, what are stored in the same file, history has no backup. Unless you have a backup somewhere . . . . . .
These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.
These add-ons can be a great help by backing up and restoring Firefox
FEBE (Firefox Environment Backup Extension) {web link} FEBE allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions, history, passwords, and more. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your saved files individually into installable .xpi files. It will also make backups of files that you choose.

You would need a backup copy of the places.sqlite file that stores bookmarks and history. If you use the Time Machine then you can look there.
You can use this button to go to the current Firefox profile folder:
