Henri-Christian is born as the fourth child of Fergus and Marsali. He is a dwarf and some of the residents of Fraser's Ridge believe he is a punishment for his parents' sins. Henri-Christian is placed in a basket and put into a stream by some boys. Roger saves him and baptized him.
Henri-Christian's legs slip and he falls to the ground. Germain falls trying to grab Henri-Christian and is caught by Fergus. The waiting men were unable to catch Henri-Christian and he dies, hitting the ground.
Despite everything he is currently going through, he was there when she needed him the most. Marsali did survive childbirth. The baby also survived.
As a result, Marsali takes on much of the physical labor of tending the whisky still and minding the animals, as well as caring for her four young children, cooking, and cleaning, while Fergus seeks out odd jobs that take him away from home for extended periods, like acting as messenger or translator.
The big question for Marsali, Fergus, and others is why Henri-Christian is a dwarf. Is it something that Marsali did or something that happened to her? The truth we know now is that it's simply genetics.

Marsali and Fergus tied the knot in Season 3, Episode 11 of Outlander, during a cruise to the Caribbean. They welcomed their first kid, Germain, soon after the wedding. Their second, a daughter named Joan, followed shortly after.
Marsali and Fergus have their first child, Germain.
Fergus is 17 years older than Ian and 15 years older than Marsali.
He may never have called Jamie “Dad,” but Jamie has been the only father figure he's ever known. He's always looked up to Jamie, and this moment shows that Jamie continues to respect Fergus and call him family. There are sadly some who wouldn't view adopted sons and daughters in the same way as biological ones.
And in spite of all she'd done to hurt the Frasers Claire tried to at the least save Malva's unborn baby. The baby did not survive. As a result many on the Ridge and the area accused Claire of murdering her and the baby, resulting in Claire's arrest by Richard Brown.
She went into intense labour during dinner, with Claire Fraser (Caitriona Balfe) and Malva Christie (Jessica Reynolds) by her side, Marsali gave birth to a son. Despite the happiness in the room, Fergus was instantly devastated after spotting their baby was born with dwarfism.
Marsali would have been left a widow with four children, and everyone would have been devastated. Fortunately, that's not how it all played out. And we got to hear that Fergus and Marsali were heading to New Bern where Fergus could open up his own print shop.
While Ian had been adopted into the tribe, his spirit was still not right for Emily's spirit. Some of the tribe (and Emily) decided it was time for Young Ian to leave. Emily moved onto Kaheroton (and they would end up having a son together), and Young Ian was told to go back to his own family.
Unfortunately, it's unlikely fans will see the return of César Domboy and Lauren Lyle as Fergus and Marsali Fraser, respectively, since they left Fraser's Ridge without any indication of returning.
The part of Fergus in Seasons 2 and 3 of Outlander was Berrux's first English-speaking role. He was replaced in the role by French actor César Domboy, who portrays the adult version of the character.
Claire's maiden name was also Beauchamp. This would mean that she could be very distantly related to Fergus. This is sweet to think about, really, since Claire has acted as Fergus' adoptive mother since she and Jamie took him in when he was a pick-pocket in France as a boy.
We learn that Fergus (Romann Berrux) is not getting drunk and beating Marsali. Hooray! Unfortunately, Marsali is the one getting angry at Fergus.
In the novels, Marsali and Fergus apparently know. They haven't been told on-page, but Diana Gabaldon confirms that the two know that Claire, Bree, and Roger are time travelers.
Jamie also has two stepdaughters, Marsali MacKimmie Fraser and Joan MacKimmie, from his marriage to his second wife, Laoghaire MacKenzie.
Interestingly, Jamie's son, William Ransom, now 19 years old and Earl of Ellesmere, will be a large part of the Outlander season 7 story, and viewers should expect Lord John, Fergus, and Marsali to take a larger role next season as well.
Well, Fergus is believed to be the son of the comte and Amelie Beauchamp.
Viewers watched as Marsali finally give birth to baby Henry-Christian, who is a dwarf.
We eventually learn that Ian had two unborn children who Emily (his wife) miscarried and then a daughter Yeksa'a Iseabaìl, who dies as a baby. Claire hears about it and considers whether there was a problem with mixed blood. We know now that there are issues for those with rhesus negative blood.
I went back up to Scotland and second unit and filmed the cut-aways." Rather than casting an infant with dwarfism, they used post-production techniques to alter the baby's appearance. Besides the technical difficulties, Cheeseman says there was a narrative reason that Henri-Christian wasn't shown until later.
