The n-th partial sums of the Taylor expansion of E are f(n) = A061354(n)/A061355(n) = 1, 2, 5/2, 8/3, 65/24, 163/60,.. .
The partial sums of an expansion of 1/e are essentially A000255(n-2)/A001048(n-1) preceded by 1 and 0, namely  g(n)= 1, 0, 1/2, 1/3, 3/8, 11/30, 53/144, 103/280, 2119/5760,... (Jolley's partial sums of 1/E in A068985 is the bisection 0, 1/3, 11/30, 103/280, 16687/45360,... of g(n).)
The current sequence are the numerators of f(n)+g(n), converging to E+1/E, namely 2, 2, 3, 3, 37/12, 37/12, 1111/360, 1111/360, 6913/2240 = 62217/21060, 6913/2240 = 62217/21060, 799933/259200 = 5599531/1814400,... The unreduced fractions are apparently given by duplicated A051396(n+1)/A002674(n).

			a(0)=1+1, a(1)=2+0, a(2)=(5+1)/2, a(3)=(8+1)/3.

Cf. A001113, A068985, A137204 (e+1/e).
