In addition to the sources suggested by Henry, you might also look at:
Anthony Parent, FOUL MEANS: THE FORMATION OF A SLAVE SOCIETY IN VIRGINIA, 1660-1740
Allan Kulikoff, TOBACCO AND SLAVES: THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOUTHERN CULTURES IN THE CHESAPEAKE, 1680-1800
Kathleen Brown, GOOD WIVES, NASTY WENCHES, AND ANXIOUS PATRIARCHS: GENDER, RACE, AND POWER IN COLONIAL VIRGINIA
Brown's book, despite its title, bears reading on this subject--John Kolp builds on and expands from it, in his chapters on Virginia in the recent Virginia history textbook OLD DOMINION, NEW COMMONWEALTH: A HISTORY OF VIRGINIA, 1607-2007.
All best,
