man MAKEDEV
cd /dev; MAKEDEV ugen1

This is in the handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/basics-devices.html

That should resolve the issue.

Note that this question should of been directed to either -questions or
-stable.  -arch is for disscussions of the architecture of FreeBSD-current
and beyond.
