If a slave was important enough it was likely that he or she did own personal slaves
In some historical contexts, it was possible for a slave to own other slaves. This practice was seen in various ancient civilizations, where slaves could earn or be granted privileges that allowed them to have some form of ownership over other individuals. However, the rights and treatment of these enslaved individuals would still be determined by the larger system of slavery in place.

no Actually there's record of former black slaves in Jamaica owning Rominchal gypsies as slaves during the 1650's. At that time a lot of western European nations (including England and Scotland) enslaved gypsies and sold them because they considered them a 'problem.' They did! And in the USA! There are some census records that indicate quite a large percentage of free black slaves in some states (particularly Louisiana) owned slaves. You have to remember that at that time slavery was an accepted part of most societies not just in the Americas. Most black slaves brought over from Africa had likely owned slaves themselves, lived in towns and villages with slaves, or may have already been slaves. Slavery was rampant in the middle east, parts of Asia, and even some parts of Europe. Here's a good site for you to look at, it has the census information on black slave owners dating back to 1790's.

The average person didn't own slaves, only the rich owned slaves.actually, by the time of the civil war, the vast majority of soldiers that fought for the confederacy didn't own slaves, but the rich business owners and many politicians did. A very sad time In deed.
