About the links to
  http://quod.lib.umich.edu/cgi/t/text/text-idx?c=umhistmath;cc=umhistmath;idno=abv2773.0001.001;view=toc
(i.e. all links http://quod.lib.umich.edu/* in all seqs):

I suggest to delete them summarily because
the site makes it intentionally impossible
to download the whole text.
The material is out of copyright and
the place tries to capitalize on selling
printed copies, just follow the link.

Also the site uses javascript which
is a security, usability, and accesibility issue.

These links appear in the seqs you refer to as
  Edward Everett Withford, Pell Equation

If one source there is hugely useful for the OEIS
I suggest someone downloads the pieces & stitch them
together AND make the result a file local on the OEIS website.
