Number of minimal topologically connected chord graphs covering {1..n}.

COMMENTS
Covering means there are no isolated vertices. Two edges {a,b}, {c,d} are crossing if a < c < b < d or c < a < d < b. A graph is topologically connected if the graph whose vertices are the edges and whose edges are crossing pairs of edges is connected.
EXAMPLE
The a(4) = 1 through a(6) = 22 edge-sets:
