John Fitzgerald Byers was born on November 22, 1963 in the town of Sterling, Virginia. He was named after John F. Kennedy, who was assassinated on that same day. Byers idolized Kennedy, but he was always curious about Kennedy's true cause of death.

Until 1989, Byers worked as a public affairs officer for the FCC in Baltimore, Maryland. It was then that he met and fell for Suzanne Modeski at a computer electronics show. Suzanne worked for the Army Advanced Weapons facility as a scientist and looked to him to help stop one of the developments that was being used on innocent civilians. He was helped by Melvin Frohike and Richard Langly, and while the group succeeded, Modeski was kidnapped. From that point, the group had a desire to reveal the truth, and that led to the formation of "The Lone Gunman" newsletter. The newsletter gave information on conspiracy theories and governmental cover-ups. This move estranged Byers from his father.

Byers is hardly ever seen without his suit and tie, and is easily the most clean and well-kept member of the Lone Gunmen. He often goes undercover whenever the group needs somebody who looks respectful and professional. He is a specialist in biology and chemistry, and is also able to interpret strands of DNA.

In the episode "Jump the Shark," all three of the Lone Gunmen died when they sacrificed themselves to save thousands of people by using fire doors to seal themselves in a hallway with a man carrying the plague created by terrorists. Skinner arranged for the three to be buried at Arlington International Cemetery to honor their bravery.

Melvin Frohike was born around 1953 in Pontiac, Michigan. Before joining The Lone Gunmen, he was an accomplished tango dancer in Miami, and founded Frohike Electronic Corp, which specialized in cable pirating hardware.

He met John Byers and Richard Langly in Baltimore at a consumer electronics show in 1989, and the group soon after formed "The Lone Gunman" newsletter.

Of the Lone Gunmen, Frohike is the shortest and scruffiest of the bunch. He generally wears woolen vests, leather and braces, and of course his trademark fingerless gloves. He is the group's expert in photography, electronic surveillance, special operations, and is a wizard at engineering.

Frohike has also been known to show a genuine affection for Agent Scully on numerous occasions.

Richard "Ringo" Langly was born in 1968, and was raised in Saltville, Nebraska, on a farm. His parents didn't like the natural fluency that young Ringo showed with computers. In 1989, he met Melvin Frohike and John Fitzgerald Byers in Baltimore, Maryland, and the three formed a newsletter, entitled "The Lone Gunman."

Langly usually wears jeans, a t-shirt usually emblazoned with the logo of a heavy metal or punk band (such as The Ramones), and thick, black-rimmed glasses. His long blond hair sometimes causes him to be mistaken for a girl, and also bears a somewhat close resemblance to the Wayne's World character, Garth.

Langly is the computer hacking and programming expert for the Lone Gunmen, and is easily the most paranoid of the three. He is also the most sarcastic of the group, known for spouting out such comments.
