While it doesn’t specify that they were the rulers of the castle, it seems to be implied from the context. I understand that Ken Fletcher will be a special guest at DaveCon in April, so hopefully I’ll have a chance to speak with him there and ask him about his map of the castle.
The DA5 material does have Jenkins in charge of the castle as Baron. I think there is some wiggle room (though I don't yet have a copy of the text) for Jenkins possibly being a caretaker baron for someone else, but he is clearly the baron. This goes some way in explaining why the Ungulians, and not the Jenkins are in charge of Glendower. Bascom and Jenkins are not the same person.
