Derives from the earlier word "niger" (pronounced the same way, though), which meant anyone with dark skin (not just negroid people). That one dates back to the 1500s.
The word in its modern usage though directly descends from the word "negars", used by the Dutch to describe the people transported by slave ships from Africa to Virginia. That's probably the earliest usage you're likely to find.
