So in this timeline, after Letvia comes back to life; Gail is encouraged to see her family history. She vaugely knew her father turned into a vampire, but not what it entailed. As she gets closer to the literal family tree, she can see ever more into the past of what happened in the tree. Turns out it's more than just her families history. (It's probably best to read the meaning first!)
