To find the g.f., modify the Sage program below (cf. function f). It is very complicated to write it here. - Petros Hadjicostas, Oct 07 2019

(Sage) # Fripertinger's method to find the g.f. of column k >= 2 of A034253 (for small k):
def A034253col(k, length):
G1 = PSL(k, GF(2))
G2 = PSL(k-1, GF(2))
D1 = G1.cycle_index()
D2 = G2.cycle_index()
f1 = sum(i[1]*prod(1/(1-x^j) for j in i[0]) for i in D1)
f2 = sum(i[1]*prod(1/(1-x^j) for j in i[0]) for i in D2)
f = f1 - f2
return f.taylor(x, 0, length).list()
# For instance the Taylor expansion for column k = 8 (current sequence) gives
print(A034253col(8, 30)) # Petros Hadjicostas, Oct 07 2019
