He was actually of a race of hobbits called stoorish hobbits, they lived by rivers and lakes and fished for a lot of their diet. They looked like this on the right, and on the left is Sméagol before the ring.
Gollum got his name from the gurgling noise made when he swallows, I predict that the gurgling is the cause of him and Deagol strangling for the ring and in the outcome Deagol died and Sméagol had permanent throat damage.
Gollum lived way past the natural life of his race, he was born in TA 2430 and died on March 25, 3019 TA, making him about 589 years old when he died, an extremely long time for a hobbit like creature. The ring was the cause of the long life, it brought the bearer long life, but made you addicted to it and crazy in a way.
