In his classic memoir on the moment problem that bears his name, Stieltjes [2] exhibited

as an example of an indeterminate (Stieltjes) moment sequence.

Stieltjes also obtained the corresponding S-fraction and thus implicitly obtained the three-term recurrence formula satisfied by the corresponding orthogonal polynomials.
