How can I search by date added into FamilySearch

Search filtering based on date added to FamilySearch

I am a person who constantly and repeatedly is reasearching a given set of topics over a long period of years - as an example researching the surnames of YANCY/YANCY ( "a one name study" )

I sure wish there was a way I could search on records for people with surname YANCEY - but do so in filtering the results with those that have been created/added in the last X months - etc - so I can more easily see what is new to FamilySearch.

otherwise - I just continue to muddle through the same exact things that I have found before . . .

I want to quickly and easily see WHAT IS NEW.

This could apply to Family Tree, Records Search, Memories, Catalog or even other areas.

I just find myself wasting way too much time - muddling through the same old stuff again and again - when I shouldn't have to.

    @Dennis J Yancey Since, at this time, there is no way to search by activity date, by using the following feature, for the end of the line of family line in which you have an interest, you would be notified of any recent activity on that particular line.

    Im not really interested in just the "end of line" - im interested in any Yanceys anywhere or anytime.

    Im interested in any new records created in FS Tamily Tree, FS Memories, FS Catalog, FS Records for a given surname


    Im also interested topics - such as Family Bibles, Needlework Samplers, Fraktur etc.


    and I didnt see any "following feature" in your post.
