Reduce search of persons only to names without tree "first"

I'm doing "gen roots" for my parents with surname "Clerici", "Piovesan", "Zaffalon", "Bovolon", "Giusti", "Passeri". When I search for a specific name, like "Angelo, Antonio, Carlo, Giuseppe, Giovanni, Francesco, Pietro", with one of those surnames, I would like to get the results primarily for whom without tree first and after for those with tree registered in Family Search databases. This will agilize time to focus on people that still not registered but was compiled from the image archives.

    I think you are attempting to find results which do not have an attached profile.

    and: "and after for those with tree registered in Family Search databases"

    for results which have an attached profile

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no method to filter results on this basis.

    And there are many profiles to which the relevant records have not been attached. Plus, there are many duplicate records.

    If we were to create profiles based on unattached records, we would see the same duplicate profile issues we are already battling due to the BYU projects.

    Also, it is not uncommon for a source record to be attached to an incorrect profile. When I am searching for records related to a person, I want to see all the relevant records. It would be unfortunate if a relevant record were hidden from my search because some other offset had incorrectly attached it to some other profile.
