Exclude System entries with "ls" or "find"

Compare Cygwin:

    $ ls -1 -N /cygdrive/c
    $Recycle.Bin
    cygwin64
    Documents and Settings
    pagefile.sys
    PerfLogs
    Program Files
    Program Files (x86)
    ProgramData
    Recovery
    System Volume Information
    Users
    Windows

With Command Prompt:

    > dir /A:-S C:
    2018-12-08  10:14 AM    <DIR>          cygwin64
    2009-07-13  09:20 PM    <DIR>          PerfLogs
    2018-12-15  06:05 PM    <DIR>          Program Files
    2018-12-15  05:21 PM    <DIR>          Program Files (x86)
    2018-10-31  06:07 PM    <DIR>          ProgramData
    2018-11-18  01:10 AM    <DIR>          Users
    2018-11-09  08:18 AM    <DIR>          Windows

as can be seen, Command Prompt has a way to exclude System items. Does Cygwin
have some way to do this, perhaps with "ls" or "find"?
