Bevan was the eldest surviving son of Zachary Bevan and his wife Sarah Bayly of Laugharne. He matriculated at Brasenose College, Oxford on 28 February 1705, aged 17. Also in 1705, he was admitted at Middle Temple and was called to the bar in 1712. He married Bridget Vaughan, daughter of John Vaughan of Derllys, Carmarthen. from a junior branch of the Vaughans of Golden Grove who led the Whig interest in Carmarthen in the seventeenth century. On 22 July 1722, Bevan was appointed Recorder of Carmarthen, where he played a leading role in the Whig interest. He was elected in a contest at the 1727 British general election as Member of Parliament for Carmarthen. He voted against the Excise Bill in 1733, but all his other recorded votes were for the Government. He was returned unopposed at the 1734 British general election and was chairman of the committee set up to consider the continuance of expired or expiring laws for each session in 1734, 1737 and 1739. He lost his seat at the 1741 British general election and also lost his recordership on 7 August 1741 as a result of Sir John Philipps' development of the Tory interest in the borough. Bevan died on 6 March 1742. (en)
