FORMULA

a(n) = 2^n + 3*(6^n - 1)/5.
a(n) = (2*(A154407(n) + 1)/5 - 1. - Hugo Pfoertner, Nov 22 2022

EXAMPLE
|
For n=2, the tree comprises a(2) = 25 people,
G-------G G-------G G = 4 grandparents
/ | \ / | \ P = 2 parents
U U P---P U U S = 2 siblings
/|\ /|\ /|\ /|\ /|\ U = 4 uncles (or aunts)
C C C C C C S M S C C C C C C C = 12 cousins
The spouses of U are not shown and are not genetic relatives of M.
