Are there any personal diaries from former slave owners? How they felt about the American Civil War, slavery, reconstruction, etc?

There are.

One of the most easily accessible collections is "Documenting the American South" which is a digitization project carried out by the Uni. Of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

"First Person Narratives of the American South and "The Southern Homefront, 1861-1865" are the two collections most directly related to your question.
