For readings on Blacks that owned slaves see these resources.
We have a book by Gary Mills, who a professor at Univ. of
Alabama, "The Forgotten People," which is about Creoles of Color in
Louisiana who owned slaves. It sells for $14.95, postpaid.
"Black Slave owners" about Free Black Slave
Masters in South Carolina, 1790-1860. It sells for $19.95, postpaid.
So check out those books, those are approximate costs for the books.
Another one to check out is
