The title with which I am familiar is JOSHUA, SON OF NONE by Nancy Freedman.
Our copy was published in '73.

Subject: Book about cloning JFK
A patron has a question about a book she read c. 1989. In the book, JFK is
cloned after he dies. Any ideas?

<<
I read a book over 20 years ago called Joshua, Son of None by Nancy Freedman
in which the recently assassinated Kennedy was cloned and the baby was
brought up in the same environment as the president. >>
I read the same book, and have a copy (somewhere amid the 6000+, so it's not
too easy to put my hands on it.) However, I have a recollection that they
didn't have only one clone - (I don't want to spoil this for anyone). I
really enjoyed the book, though.
Dennis? Clarification?
