The richest black girl in America by the Age of 11: Oklahoma born Sarah Rector :

Sarah Rector is deemed as one of the first Black women millionaires in the United States. Born in 1902 to African descendants of the Muscogee Nation, Rector was granted 160 acres of land by the Federal Government at the age of 12 as a result of the Dawes Allotment Act of 1887.[1] Rector’s land was located in Glenpool, Oklahoma, about 60 miles from her family’s home and was considered inferior soil that was not suitable for farming.
Rector and her family became burdened with paying land taxes on the property, and in 1911, the family leased the parcel to the Standard Oil Company. In February of 1913, an independent oil driller named B.B. Jones drilled a well on the Rector property which produced more than 2,000 barrels of oil a day.
Rector began receiving an income of $300 (about $7,609 today) a day from this oil strike.[2] In October 1913, the property became part of the Cushing-Drumright Oil Field, and as a result Rector began receiving royalties of over $11,000 , making her the richest 12-year-old Black woman in the United States
