It is completely impossible to know the actual number of slaves that were owned by an individual, because your question does not have any boundaries in which to confine the question. But if I were to attempt to answer it, it would depend if the slave was a domestic worker, or if an owner had a plantation in which the number could stretch into the hundreds, obviously depending on the size of the estate/ farm/ crop.

It varied widely depending on time, place, and individual circumstances. In the United States during the antebellum period, for example, the average slaveholder owned around 5-6 slaves. However, there were also many people who owned only 1 or 2 slaves, while wealthy plantation owners could own hundreds.

Who was one of the first slaves?

Well there really isn't a first slave because none of the slave masters took one by one.
