Hi Dwilliams0131,
To mute a conversation in the Messages app, follow Change message notifications on iPhone:
"Stop notifications for one conversation
You can stop getting notifications for a conversation while you continue to receive its messages.
- Open the Messages app
on your iPhone. - In the Messages list, do one of the following:
- Swipe left on a conversation, then tap
. - Touch and hold a conversation, then tap Hide Alerts."
To have notifications for the message thread again, swipe left again and tap "Unmute."
Take care.
