Hadmar is mentioned in the Stifterbuch (Liber fundatorum; the cartulary of Zwettl Abbey[lower-alpha 1]) as second founder (secundus fundator) of the monastery.
Hadmar's sister Gisela (d. after 1192) was married to Leutwin of Sunnberg.[1]

Notes
- This manuscript from the early 14th century (Zwettl - Zisterzienser-Stift, Zwettler Bärenhaut (Stifterbuch, Liber fundatorum)) is also known as "Bärenhaut" (de). The German term literally translates as bear hide or bear skin, however in this case a herd boar ("Saubär"or "Zuchteber") is hiding behind the word Bär.

gollark: What 450GB of data are you *writing?
gollark: The powerline adapter in my room has stopped working, due to it bending an ethernet cable at some horrible angle for two years due to poor ethernet port placement, so now I get to enjoy *less* than 300KB/s WiFi.
gollark: It has to for the EFI system partition which is probably what you wiped.
gollark: Unfortunately, things may be moving away from this. We're in a good place now where most high-performance devices are *relatively* open and support approximately the same standards for boot and whatever, but in many areas ARM is beginning to take over with its general locked-down-ness and utterly awful mess of incompatible boot systems.
