Hi, Kevin, After decades, we are still seeking our Bowerman ancestors in NE Devon. I have Thomas back to a baptism in Uplowman in 1779, and he dies there in 1750. In between he marries Mary Atkins and has his children baptised in Clayhanger. His father appears to be John, baptized in Uplowman also, in 1747. I am not sure enough of that though to take it further. I remember that you had connections to Hemyock.
